dcterms.descriptionThe date has long been an important staple food in oases, and is often the main cash crop both in countries on the traditional desert trading routes of the Middle East and North Africa and in the palm groves of nomads in the Sahel and eastern Africa. Consumption of dates is falling though, in producer and consumer countries. A recent publication calls for finding new outlets for processed date products (syrups, flours, pastes and vinegar) and animal feed - a line already being followed commercially in some oases. Sécheresse, Special issue on ÔOasis', vol. 9 no. 2, June 1998 : 'Le marché de la datte, produit de rente des oasis : enjeux, diversité, tensions'.
