?COMPARATIVE STUDIES ON COMPOSITION OF COMMERCIAL INDIGENOUS AND IMPORTED DATE VARIETIES
Keywords:
Dates, Minerals, Nutritional value.Abstract
Some varieties of dates produced in different parts of Pakistan and the imported popular varieties were assessed for
nutrients and minerals. Comparison of the values showed that as far as the common fruit quality characteristics such as
proteins, fats and carbohydrates are concerned, there were only slight differences among the indigenous and imported
varieties. In some respects, some of the indigenous grown varieties were superior to imported ones while the imported
varieties had a slight edge over the locally produced fruit as far as minerals (Na & K) were concerned.
