The Bretton Woods institution has decided to grant a loan of 200 million USD in support of Moroccan agriculture. The objective is to support the growth of the sector generated by the Maroc Vert plan, by improving the competitiveness of the agribusiness sector and efficiency of the food markets, in particular via better integration of small and medium producers. In terms of the citrus industry, funds will in particular be earmarked for strengthening the “Maroc Citrus” inter-professional association (creation of regional representations) and the Citrus Inter-Professional Research & Development Centre (CIRDA), as well as helping set up and upgrade packing stations.
