Résumé : | Several Moroccan agricultural sectors are rich of resilient local products with the capacity to resist to climate change. The characterization, valorization, and promotion of these products are among the priorities of national agricultural strategies. Through this article, the case of six local or terroir products from resilient cultures (cactus, legumes, olive oils, dates, aromatic and medicinal plants, and carobs) is illustrated by presenting appropriate models of research and development actions in terms of post-harvest valorization. These resilient terroir products are perfectly suitable for the development of specific terroirs in arid and semi-arid zones and play an important role in food security, preservation of biodiversity as well as socio-economic development of rural communities. They are also appreciated on local, national, and international markets for their notoriety, typicity, and quality. Consequently, prospective research will be oriented more towards the consolidation of National Institute of Agricultural Research (INRA) expertise in the areas of valorization and promotion of resilient terroir products. This objective can be reached through an innovative and multidisciplinary research making it possible to predict and mitigate the effect of climate change on the intrinsic and extrinsic qualities of these products as well as the viability and sustainability of their value chains. |
