Part of the oasis on the edge of the wadi in M'heiret has been devastated in recent years following the alternation extreme climatic episodes (drought and significant floods) leading to flooding and the death of numerous date palm trees. Introduced in Mauritania around the 7th AD, the date palm plays an important socio-economic role and its exploitation, in addition to promoting the development of a microclimate conducive to other crops, constitutes a significant source of income for the inhabitants. oases. Mauritania has 2.6 million palm trees and produces 24,000 tonnes of dates annually according to the latest figures from the Ministry of Agriculture. (July 2024). But phoeniciculture today faces many challenges, particularly linked to climate change. Indeed, Mauritanian palm groves are subject to various constraints directly threatening date palm cultivation. Among them, we find diseases, pests but also the aging of plantations, silting, salinization of the earth or even flooding due to successive floods of wadis.
