Particular consideration was given to the differences and interaction between these problems and agricultural policy and their effect on achieving the objectives of the study. A sample of 64 date growers was selected randomly from three major areas in the Biskra region. The research findings are presented and discussed with recommendations on how to improve date production in the region.
