As winter officially begins on December 21, the Fes-Meknes region, renowned for its exceptional agricultural significance, eagerly anticipates rainfall to rejuvenate the agricultural sector, which forms the backbone of the local economy.
The Fes-Meknes region stands as one of Morocco’s most vital agricultural hubs, contributing significantly to the regional GDP. With approximately 1.3 million hectares of arable land, it plays a pivotal role in the national production of cereals, olives, and vegetables.
Farmers in the region largely depend on rainfall as their primary source for irrigating crops, making the winter season crucial. The expected rains are not only vital for seasonal crops but also essential for improving pastures and replenishing groundwater reserves, which are the lifeblood of agricultural activities in the area.
According to official data, the region has benefited in recent years from major national projects under the “Green Generation” program. These initiatives aim to enhance productivity and preserve natural resources by improving irrigation systems, promoting reforestation, and encouraging sustainable farming practices.
Experts agree that the success of the agricultural season in Fes-Meknes hinges on consistent rainfall, offering a glimmer of hope for farmers striving to secure abundant harvests. This, in turn, supports food security and improves the living conditions of the region’s inhabitants.
The Fes-Meknes region looks forward to a productive agricultural season, reinforcing its position as a driving force of Morocco’s agricultural sector.
