The '''Date palm''' is a tree. It has been cultivated for a very long time because of its fruit. The tree is between {{convert|15|and|25|m|abbr=off}} high. It has long leaves that look like [[feather]]s. Such leaves are called pinnate. The leaves can grow to {{convert|3|to|5| m|abbr=off}} in length. The leaves have visible spines. There are about 150 leaflets. Each leaflet can be up to {{convert|30|cm|abbr=off}} in length and {{convert|2|cm|abbr=off}} in breadth. The full span of the crown of the tree is {{convert|6 |to |10 |m|abbr=off}}.

The tree has one or more trunks. All the trunks come from a single system of roots.

== Production ==
World production of dates was approximately 6.7 Mio [[tonne]]s in [[2004]] ([[Food and Agriculture Organization|FAO]] statistics). The major producers are:
* [[Egypt]]: 1,100,000 t (16.2% of world production)
* [[Iran]]: 880,000 t (13.0%)
* [[Saudi Arabia]]: 830,000 t (12.3%)
* [[United Arab Emirates]]: 760,000 t (11.2%)

* [[Oman]]: 240,000 t
* [[Libya]]: 140,000 t
*[[Tunisia]]: 150,500 t
