IllustrationA 9 July 2026 announcement by Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture put the country’s date production in 2024 at 1.92 million tonnes. The production year should not be confused with the date of the 2026 announcement or harvest season.
The ministry also reported 37.6 million date palms for that period, of which 32.2 million were productive. Tree counts are separate from production tonnage; the figures are not a 2026 output result.
