The government supports authorized seed marketers with subsidies of up to 800 dirhams per quintal
In a move aimed at enhancing the agricultural sector and ensuring the quality of agricultural production, the Moroccan government has decided to allocate financial subsidies for authorized seed marketers, reaching up to 800 dirhams per quintal. This initiative aims to support this vital activity and encourage stakeholders to broaden the use of high-quality seeds.
This action is part of Morocco’s efforts to strengthen the agricultural production system by promoting the use of certified seeds, which contribute to improving both yield and crop quality, thereby enhancing the sector’s competitiveness at both national and international levels.
These subsidies seek to alleviate the financial burdens on seed marketers and encourage them to ensure that this essential material is available to farmers under suitable conditions, thereby enhancing food security and reducing fluctuations in production.
This step is also part of a broader policy aimed at supporting farmers and improving production chains by encouraging the adoption of modern techniques and sustainable agricultural practices, aligning with strategic goals for the development of the agricultural sector.
This support is expected to help expand the use of certified seeds and improve the quality of agricultural products, positively affecting farmers’ income and stabilizing agricultural markets.
