The Libyan palm germplasm represents a heritage of great agricultural and environmental interest and it is a source of genetic variability useful for breeding other varieties, necessary to overcome the limitations of the cultivation of date palm in Africa. The varietal component also contributes significantly the quality characteristics of date palm products, based on local varieties with strong regional typification and high nutritional value.
Al Jufrah Region
The Shabia of Al Jufrah Region The study area The five most important oasis
From the geological point of view, most part of the area is composed by sandstone and limestone deposits, but the volcanic activity of Tertiary and Quaternary ages created large basalt deposits in the western and in the south-eastern part of the area.

Sandy or very sandy soils are predominant in the Waddan and Hun areas, with a transition towards finer textured soils (sandy loam or loamy soils) in the depression of Sokna. The organic matter is always very low and most soils show a poor to very poor structure, except for heavier soils in the surroundings of Sokna.
The region belongs climatically to the pre-desertic belt; even if a certain influence of the Mediterranean Sea can still be noticed byLibya the relatively abundant â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Rainfall map winter rains on the surrounding mountains, the rainfall in the lower part of the depression is typically desertic, rarely exceeding 25 mm/year.
In Al Jufrah Region we have less then 25 mm of rain per year Al Jufrah Region - Rainfall map

Soil salinity on irrigated soils, is becoming a more and more widespread threat; in the southern part of Waddan oasis as well as in Hun is common to see thin salt crusts on the soil surface, which is reflected in reduced yield for most crops, included date palms.
