Artificial pollination of date palm is essential for commercial production. The main objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of different day time pollination on fruit set and fruit quality of Mishrig Wad Laggai,(MWL), the most popular semi-soft variety grown commercially in the Sudan (Mason, 1925). This experiment was conducted in three successive seasons during 2000, 2001 and 2002 on 36 female date palms. Three replicates three trees per plot. Four treatments, pollination early morning (6-7 am), pollination before noon (9 10 am) pollination after noon (1 2 pm) and pollination after sunset (5 -6 am ). High fruit set and high yield were obtained from pollination Mishrig Wad Laggai date palm before sun set, while the lowest values were obtained when pollination was carried out in the early morning
