Medjool Dates Fruit & Medjool Date Palm Trees

Growing medjool dates is very labor intensive.  It requires an awful lot of labor and the medjool date palms require a lot of water.  The medjool date is grown in hot deserts.  The watering is done by flooding or by drip.  Most modern farms use a drip system to conserve water and reduce the operating expense.  The problem with drip is that if there is a clog you might know about it until the date palm is dead.  The cost is about $200-500 a date palm.  Why are medjool dates expensive ?  This is one reason.
