21 June 2022
The International Center for Biosaline Agriculture (ICBA) has launched a new e-learning platform to provide specialized courses in agriculture accredited by the Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Certification Service, the UK.
Since 2002 the center has conducted different experiments in the UAE to determine the long-term effect of saline water irrigation on date palm growth, productivity, fruit quality, and the impact of salinity on the soil. The experiments are conducted on 18 date palm varieties from Saudi Arabia and the UAE, including Nabtat Sultan and Am-Al-Hamam, which are found to be very sensitive to salinity.
