| Abstract | ||||
| An experiment of Barhe date palm cultivar was conducted during three successive seasons 2015, 2016 and 2017 to compare between the different pollination techniques included traditional pollination, dusting technique and liquid spraying technique on fruit set, fruit quality and yield of Barhi date palm cultivar. The results of this study showed that all the pollination techniques induce significant differences between the treatments. The dust pollination gave high fruit set %, excellent fruit quality and high yield than traditional pollination. The poorest and lowest fruit set, quality and yield produced from the liquid spraying of pollens. Generally, dusting techniques is the cheapest and easiest and minimum cost means of pollination. | ||||
