Abdullah Salem Al Amri, Director of the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage, praised the good efforts of the Khalifa International Date Palm Award in this initiative, which promotes the close relationship between people and the elements of good soil. He emphasized that the success achieved in the first edition of the competition did not come out of noting, but from a continuous pursuit of the cooperation in the competition from the prize and the community. All photographers, whether hobbyists or professionals, are invited to participate in this international competition in appreciation of the date palm and to strengthen the photographer's role in enriching the country's memory and reviving its national heritage, handicrafts and shedding light on the heritage industries that depend on parts of the date palm such as (palm fronds, leaves and branches).

Management
In addition to developing the administration and technical staff in the Endowment Administration and registering them in training courses and establishing a specialized scientific library for them. How do you assess the current situation of date palm cultivation and date production in the Kingdom. The award represents a lot as it bears the name of the great Arab leader, His Highness Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE President, and this adds honor and pride to win this international award for the best producer in date palm cultivation and dates production.
My advice for the coming generation is to be more interested in the agricultural sector and especially the date palm and date sector in the Gulf region where it is considered as one of the food security areas in the Gulf. In addition, this sector is important for the movement of the economy in countries with these types of economic projects and the future of date palms and dates is promising.

ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
Regarding the number of flowers in the spadix, this is usually greater in males and can approach 10,000 male flowers per spadix (Zaid and Irias, 2002). The two male gametes, each containing a 1n chromosome number, will both function in the double fertilization characteristic of angiosperms, producing a 2n zygote; and a 3n primary endosperm nucleus. In other flowering plants, such as the species Gramineae, Palmae and many others, the endosperm tissue is still present in the mature seed.
As a rule, most storage parenchyma cells have thin walls and storage materials are present in the cytoplasm. In the endosperm of the date seed, the parenchyma is surrounded by very thick primary walls rich in hemicellulose, which serves as a reserve substance.
HISTOGENESIS OF MALE SPADIX
In the date palm, the endosperm constitutes the major part of the seed and nutritionally supports seed germination and early seedling development. Microgametogenesis begins with the formation of microspores until the formation of a three-celled pollen tube. Anthers are approximately 2-3 mm long when the microsporocytes are in the metaphase of the first meiosis (MI) and this must be determined again for each male variety and location of the date palm.
The phenomenon of synchrony is even more pronounced in stages of long duration such as the prophase of the first division of meiosis (P1) and in the microspore tetrad stage at the end of meiosis, where almost all the cells are in the same stage of development. In trisomic condition, 17 bivalents are observed, in addition to one trivalent configuration of the homologous chromosomes involved in the trisomic condition.
Such research should be conducted on different male date palm cultivars to determine the duration of meiosis and shed light on some physiological and developmental aspects of anther development and pollen grain viability.

Investment in Date Palm
Construction and construction activities are increasing greatly in the United Arab Emirates to the extent that it became one of the world's best countries in the field of construction development. This led to large amounts of daily wood waste, and therefore the importance of using this waste appears; they can be recycled and remanufactured to produce valuable sought-after composite products. These products are of high quality, as they are made from good wood materials. Our projects will use this wood waste - all types, collect and recycle it into new useful wood products that can be used as building materials, furniture manufacturing and packaging process.
Value addition to the date palm plantation projects, whereas buying the palm waste at any low price from the farmers will increase the income of farm owners, then it will encourage them to take more care of such trees and plant more of it. Elementary machine costs for nominated projects Use of palm and wood waste as raw material.

This date preservation technique could be used via cold storage in transit ports for export/import activities, also a lot of dates'. The use of heat treatment of dates and date products has advantages, which are that workers and technicians can enter the stores during the treatment process to correct any malfunctions, to ensure that the thermal treatment is proceeding correctly or to take samples from treated dates during and after heat treatment to evaluate treatment effectiveness. After the end of this treatment, the temperature of the fruits corresponds to the ambient temperature, and the fruits of the dates are then ready for the various manufacturing processes.
Dates' fruits usually take from 1 to 2 hours to reach the required degree (50-55 °C), depending on date variety and its characteristics. As already mentioned, the insect infestation of dates will reduce dates' validity for human consumption as well as invalidity for marketing in local, regional and international markets.
COMPARISON OF DATE PALM CVS PRODUCED
WITH PALM PROPAGATED BY OFFSHOOTS
Vegetative growth
Three leaves were randomly selected in different directions and their total length and dorsal distances were measured. In addition, the average numbers of spines per leaf were counted and the total numbers of new leaves were also calculated.
Fruit characteristics
They observed the production of two types of shoots (tall and short). cm) Leaves Spines Leaves Shoots. Morphological characters showed similarity in leaf length and density of spines 305 cm & 32 produced by tissue culture and 310. Average fruit weight was obtained in. The length and diameter of the seed were measured in cm and the averages recorded.
The length and number of leaflets and the formation of high and low shoots were also similar in the tissue-generated palm. The length and number of leaflets did not show noticeable differences in both propagation methods.
Fruits characteristics
Measurement of the stem circumference of the tissue culture yielded a close resemblance to the original standard cv. Moreover, the number of branches produced was the same for both propagation types (Table 2 and fig2).

OBVIOUS ATTACK OF CHARANÇON RED
The difficulty with the charançon is that to get rid of some of them it is necessary to remove the infected palm tree. While the majority of diseases that affect palm trees can be contained by chemical or biological action, the red charançon prompts some with physical measurements against the palm tree. Thus, it is recommended to cut down the palm trees contaminated by burning or crushing to prevent the emergence of Adultes insects and the infestation of the surrounding palm trees.
It could destroy all the palm plantations of the South if it were to be introduced. Then it is necessary to control those that have already been imported such as those of the park of the High winds.
