15^th -17^th Dec 2018, Helnan Hotel, Aswan - Egypt

The Palmae family includes a wide variety of species (e.g. date, coconut, oil, doum, sugar, etc.)

They’re considered the main source of livelihood for significant sectors of the world population especially in the south.

The main product (cash crop) was the focus of international conferences worldwide.

Their by-products (secondary products) received little attention from the scientific community.
