Akhannouch Comments on Sheep Imports and Accountability
The Moroccan government focused on addressing the repercussions of a five-year drought by deciding to import approximately 800,000 sheep in order to meet market needs during Eid al-Adha. This measure comes in response to the decline of pastures and the natural reproduction of the herds, which has led to a shortage of locally available sacrificial animals. The government provided a subsidy of 500 dirhams for each imported sheep to encourage imports and increase supply. Importers have also contributed to supporting the national market, recognizing that relying solely on domestic production is impossible. Additionally, the government launched a program to support 1.2 million herders, aiming to strengthen and unify the national flock. It emphasized that it has managed to preserve the herd despite some violations and rejected any evasion of responsibility regarding the management of this issue, expressing its readiness to cooperate with any investigation committee.
