Organized in partnership with the Souss-Massa Region, this meeting seeks to facilitate the exchange of information and knowledge between professionals from both countries and will report on developments in the fruit and vegetable and fish farming sector, the CCIMI said in a release.

The symposium will primarily address the issue of water and the use of new technologies for the optimization of irrigation, a vital issue for the sector.

During this event, producers from the Souss-Massa region, which produces 85% of the Kingdom's agricultural exports, will be able to learn about innovations in the sector, explore potential partnerships in research and development, between universities and producers, and identify joint opportunities with Agro Tech start-ups and potential investors from Israel, the release read.

This is an initiative that is part of the resumption of relations between Morocco and Israel, as well as the strategy for reviving economic activity in post-Covid Morocco, to build a more resilient and sustainable economy, in line with the guidelines of the New Development Model.

This action will see the participation of more than 250 entrepreneurs, officials and representatives of companies in the sector, startups, laboratories and research institutes from Morocco and Israel.

According to the CCIMI, this symposium will be an important and concrete contribution to the national effort to improve productivity, skills, innovation and new technologies for agriculture in Morocco.
