Regulation and sustainable agriculture: levers for a high-performing sector

This workshop brought together the perspectives of institutional and economic players on regulatory developments in food safety and sustainability. The discussions notably highlighted the central role of the National Food Safety Office (ONSSA) in supporting operators, as well as the issues involved in aligning Moroccan standards with international requirements.

Beyond the regulatory framework, the discussions also covered the concrete opportunities available to companies, particularly in terms of structuring value chains, market access and moving agricultural production upmarket.

The testimony of a Swiss company engaged in this transition illustrated, in operational terms, the benefits of an approach that combines economic performance, regulatory compliance and sustainability.

This meeting is fully in line with the CCSM’s aim of offering high value-added forums for dialogue, in the service of more competitive, resilient and responsible agriculture.
