In Bushehr province, the southern regions, especially Dashtestan County, are known as the best areas for date cultivation. In particular, the cities of Abbakhsh and Borazjan in Dashtestan have the largest number of date palms and date palm groves and are considered the main poles of date production in the country.
Why and how
- Size and Importance: The Abpakhsh Palm Grove is located in Dashtestan County, near the city of Borazjan, and is one of the largest date palm production centers in the country. This palm grove covers an area of more than 29,000 hectares and produces more than 60,000 tons of dates annually.
- Palm Road: The Abpakhsh Palm Grove Road is the longest palm road in southern Iran and offers a unique view of towering palm trees.
The largest palm grove in Bushehr is the Abbakhsh palm grove.
Bushehr is located along the Persian Gulf to the north, south, and west, and its semi-desert and warm climate makes it very suitable for the growth of palm trees. There are more than 39,000 hectares of palm forest and six million palm trees in this province. Among the cities of Bushehr, the two cities of Abbakhsh and Dashtestan have recorded the highest number of palm trees and the largest palm groves.
The Abpakhsh Palm Grove in Bushehr is the longest palm grove road in the south of the country, and its irrigation network, the oldest in the country, was built by German experts in 1945. This palm grove is irrigated by the water-rich canals of the Shapur and Dalki rivers.
