Morocco’s economic growth prospects for 2026 are favorable, boosted notably by a cereal output of 70 million quintals (Mqx) and the continuation of major structural projects, according to the economic and financial report accompanying the 2026 Finance Bill.

The report, published on the website of the Ministry of Economy and Finance, states that next year should confirm the positive trend in high value-added sectors, the recovery of sectors impacted by the health crisis, and the easing of pressure on macroeconomic balances.

On this basis, the national economy is expected to post growth of 4.6% in 2026, supported by a 7.9% rise in agricultural value added and a consolidation of non-agricultural activities, which are projected to grow by 4%.

Taking into account a 5.9% increase in taxes on products net of subsidies, non-agricultural gross domestic product (GDP) is expected to grow by 4.3% in 2026. The value added of the secondary sector should increase by 3.7%, compared to 4.2% for the tertiary sector.

The report also reveals that domestic demand components are expected to maintain sustained growth in 2026, driven by strong performance in investment and household consumption. The latter is forecast to increase by 3.7% in volume in 2026, contributing 2.2 percentage points to real economic growth.
