Using the best sustainable and ethical farming practices, Bateel’s cultivation techniques are kept as close to nature as possible

Using the Single Date Thinning method, Bateel's skilled farmers remove 80% to 90% of the dates, leaving the remaining dates in a healthier environment. The buds removed are sustainably recycled and repurposed, used as compost, or as camel food. Each year, more than 3,000 tonnes of the highest quality, organic dates are harvested. Bateel's strategically placed irrigation system is channeled across the farm to enable farmers to recycle and preserve the readily available water of the land. Each date palm is watered from the naturally occurring desert wadi and surrounded by a mud bed which traps the water and ensures the water is recycled, transforming the landscape into a fertile reserve. Bateel groves produce nearly 2,000 tonnes of organic waste per year, all of which is returned to the farm as nutrient-rich compost. A rich heritage of excellence practiced dating back nearly 100 years when the date palms were first planted in 1932.
