The maritime fishing sector is establishing itself as a strategic pillar of socio-economic development in the southern provinces of the Kingdom, thanks to the enlightened vision of HM King Mohammed VI, underlined, Friday in Dakhla, the Secretary of State to the Minister of Agriculture, Maritime Fisheries, Rural Development and Water and Forests, in charge of Maritime Fisheries, Zakia Driouich.
Speaking as part of the 4th edition of the annual MD Sahara Forum, Ms. Driouich said that the “policy advocated by HM the King at the level of the southern provinces is characterized by an integrated and multi-sectoral approach, in favor of a blue economy sustainable, thanks to the implementation of the new development model for the southern provinces”.
She also welcomed the Royal Initiative for the Atlantic Area, aimed at promoting access for Sahel countries to the Atlantic Ocean, noting that significant investments have been injected into port infrastructure, including the construction of the port of Dakhla Atlantique, having mobilized some 10 billion dirhams (MMDH) and should be completed in 2028.
She also focused on fishery production which reached 1.42 million tonnes (MT) in 2023 for a value of more than 15.2 billion dirhams, specifying that 80% of the volumes landed at the national level come from ports and fishing sites in the southern provinces of the Kingdom.
The sector is attracting significant investments, through exports totaling MAD 31 billion in 2023, strengthening its share in national agri-food exports and exports coming mainly from processing units in the region, she continued.
These achievements are the result of an industrial fabric in constant development, totaling 518 processing units in 2023, 34% of which are located in the southern provinces, she said.
In addition, Ms. Driouich noted that since 2010, the “Halieutis” plan dedicated to the maritime fishing sector has generated concrete and encouraging achievements, specifying that in terms of investment, an overall budget of more than 8.5 billion dirhams. was dedicated to financing all the programs included in the sector strategy, including nearly 2.6 billion dirhams granted to projects carried out in the southern provinces.
Furthermore, she emphasized South-South cooperation in the maritime fishing sector, noting that Morocco, being a regional fishing power (1st in Africa), is firmly committed through its programs and actions in the path to sustainability.
In this vein, she recalled that the Kingdom has signed several cooperation agreements with more than 18 African countries, notably allowing the organization of training and the exchange of expertise, specifying that five landing and marketing infrastructures have been carried out for the benefit of artisanal fishing in four countries, namely Senegal, Ivory Coast, Gabon and Guinea.
Highlighting the achievements made by Morocco, thanks to the High Royal Guidelines, having placed the sustainability of fishery resources at the center of the national strategy for the development of the fishing sector, Ms. Driouich underlined that the will of the Kingdom, as he major player in Africa, to cooperate within the various bodies, is based on the solid experience acquired, thanks to the deployment of the National Strategy for the Development of the Fisheries Sector “Halieutis” launched by HM King Mohammed VI in 2009, and the Sector Development Roadmap 2020-2030, with a view to making it a lever for sustainable economic and social development.
