Saied Sobhy, a 34 years old farmer catches branches from palm trees after picking dates during the harvest season at Dahshour village, south of Giza governorate, Egypt October 4, 2022. Egypt is one of the largest producers of dates with a production of 1.8 million tonnes annually, but exports only around 40,000-50,000 tonnes because of logistical challenges.
