The date palm, belonging to the family Arecaceae (Palmae), is found to a greater or lesser extent in the southeasternt peninsular. It is well known the enormous interest that has in our Mediterranean culture, both for the environment, being one of the most important elements in the orchards, and for the economy of some popular sectors, taking today, aside from an ornamental value, usefulness in crafts. These and other important characteristics, such as its cultural value, have been the fundamental reasons to be considered as the plant symbol of our Peninsula.
The objective of this work is the critical analysis of the different regulations made in recent decades about legal protection and the promotion of the date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.), in order to ensure its historical continuity. This study sought to identify the different levels of legislation, from European legislative frameworks to local legislative fremeworks.
The study was based on articles published in the BOE, as well as various international and European publications produced by different scientific branches, whose purpose is the legal protection of Phoenix dactylifera L. The date palm is excluded from Spanish state legislation, and is excluded from Law 42/2007, os December 13, on Natural Heritage and Biodiversity. It is therefore not protected by the European Union.
