Tomato Imports Loom
Moroccan Agriculture Minister Khalid Hatimi warned that Morocco could be forced to import tomatoes within three years if production problems persist. In Chtouka Ait Baha, the cultivated area has shrunk from 8,000 to 4,000 hectares, and yields have fallen from 250 to 150 tonnes per hectare, while a virus has destroyed around 30% of the crop. The ministry plans to extend the region’s production season from about seven months to 12 months, while considering expanding the cultivated area by around 600 to 700 hectares a year to ensure a steady supply for the domestic market.
