Mexican Secretary of Agriculture and Rural Development Victor Villalobos, expressed the willingness of his country to strengthen the partnership with Morocco in the agricultural sector.
During a meeting held Tuesday virtually with the Kingdom’s Ambassador in Mexico Abdelfattah Lebbar, the Mexican minister highlighted Morocco’s progress in recent years in the agricultural field, placing the country as a pioneer in agriculture and fisheries in the Maghreb and Africa.
Other areas of cooperation which were discussed include scientific and agricultural research, food and animal safety as well as the organization of agricultural fairs, the Embassy said in a statement.
The Moroccan diplomat expressed the interest of the Kingdom to work together with Mexico to strengthen and diversify cooperation in agriculture and fisheries.
On this occasion, Lebbar highlighted the investment opportunities offered to Mexican investors by Morocco, citing some major Mexican companies that are already established in the Kingdom, notably Bimbo, Netafim, and Gruma.
An agenda for agricultural cooperation, including the development of the rural world, will be established between the two parties to capitalize on the existing agreement signed between the ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Rural Development and Water and Forests and Mexico’s Secretariat of Agriculture and Rural Development.
