Digdaga Plain information

Digdaga Plains is a large fertile sand/gravel plain in northern United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is the biggest and most fertile plain.

Digdaga is in Fujairah.^[1] To the southwest is a sand desert and to the west are mountains. The landscape used to be a savannah with Prosopis cineraria trees and Calotropis, but this has mostly been replaced with cultivation. There is also birdlife here.^[1] To the south of it is Kalba.^[2] There is a Vegetable Market for produce.^{[citation needed]}

There is some confusion that Digdaga Plains are in Ras Al Khaimah or Fujairah. It is clearly in Fujairah.^{[citation needed]} Some textbooks and maps have marked it incorrectly. The UAE Government had officially announced in 2013 that it is situated in Fujairah to clear the confusion.^{[citation needed]} In the new edition of textbooks and maps it will be marked correctly.^{[citation needed]}
