877.000 tons of Date is produced in the country each year, which 520.000 tons is surplus and could be used in processing industries.
Sugar production of the country is about 640.000 and its consumption is 1.550.000 tons a year. Thus, 900.000 tons of sugar should be imported each year.
Date surplus production could be processed to 312.000 tons of liquid sugar (date liquid or Date juice), and this is as much as one third of the imported sugar.
Producing a kg Date liquid has 1400 Rails expenditure and 1 kg sugar is sold 2200 Rails without transportation cost.
1 ton of imported sugar costs 290 $ (1750 Rails per dollar) and 1 ton of Date liquid is 500-600 $ in the world market.
Hence, summing each ton as 500 $, we would save 56 million dollars.
Date liquid could be used in making sweets, beverages, ice cream, chocolate, and etc.
