Al-Buwari: Saving Aïtouchka Agriculture and Ensuring Water Security
The article discussed large-scale water investment projects in the Al Suds-Massa region, particularly in Oued Souk and Aït Baha, aimed at enhancing water and agricultural security in the area. It highlighted efforts to overcome the drought crisis and declining water levels through the establishment of a seawater desalination plant with an investment of 4.4 billion dirhams, which has helped provide irrigation water for approximately 15,000 hectares and ensured drinking water supply. Currently, a water project is under study that plans to pump 250 million cubic meters dedicated to the agricultural sector and 100 million cubic meters for potable water, with investments amounting to 12 billion dirhams. The goal is to ease water pressure on dams, support sustainable agricultural production, and cover an agricultural area of up to 50,000 hectares. These initiatives affirm the importance of proactive decisions and structural investments in addressing water scarcity, while ongoing government policies continue to protect the agricultural sector and promote local development in the region.
