The document outlines Morocco's Green Plan for Food Security. It discusses key challenges facing Morocco's agriculture sector, including water scarcity and dependence on food imports. The plan proposes two pillars: 1) aggressively developing a high-value commercial agriculture sector through public-private partnerships and 2) supporting smallholder farmers by helping them professionalize their operations. It highlights ongoing efforts like converting irrigation systems to drip irrigation to save water and increase productivity. The plan aims to boost domestic production, rural development and food security through modernizing agriculture while ensuring social and environmental sustainability.

The Protection of Plant Varieties and Farmers’ Rights ActMahendra Pal
Intellectual property (IP) is a legal concept that includes copyrights, trademarks, patents, and related rights. Under intellectual property law, the holder of one these abstract "properties" has certain exclusive rights to the creative work, commercial symbol, or invention which is covered by it. In India, the Plant Variety Protection (PVP) and Farmers Rights Bill, 1999, proposes protection for all genera and species notified by the Central Government for a period of 15 and 18 years for herbaceous and woody species respectively subject to
the satisfaction of the NDUS ( Novelty, Distinctness, Uniformity and Stability)
criteria Protection is also extended to essentially derived varieties (EDVs). Researcher’s privilege is provided to ensure continuous improvement of varieties. Breeders from any country, honouring the principle of reciprocity, are permitted to apply for protection.
Agricultural inputs, plant protection, electricity and dieselAjit Majumder
Agricultural inputs are the requirements to carry out the agricultural activity like fertilizers, pesticides, machineries, land, ideas, knowledge, ect.
Pesticides are the most important agricultural input required post and pre harvest in the agriculture.
Chemical Control are;- pesticides, fungicide: Chemical control consist of spraying and dusting the plant by chemicals and poisons or mixing these into soil to kill pests and diseases which inhibit the soil pest and diseases which inhibit the soil. The most used chemicals s, weedicides, rodenticides, and fumigants.

The most used chemicals s, weedicides, rodenticides, and fumigants.
Electricity is one of the most indispensable agricultural input in modern agricultural practices.
The use of electricity in developed countries have reached to such a position where in India electricity use in farm base activities is still to reach recognizable dimension.
Use of electricity can supplement to the present agricultural labor crisis as many manual works can be performed by use of electricity power.
Plowing of field, pumping of water, threshing, spraying of pesticides, spraying of fertilizers and many more work can be done by use of electricity.

DRM Webinar III: Benefits of farm-level disaster risk reduction practices in ...FAO
Over the past decade, economic damages resulting from natural hazards have amounted to USD 1.5 trillion caused by geophysical hazards such as earthquakes, tsunamis and landslides, as well as hydro-meteorological hazards, including storms, floods, droughts and wild fires. Climate-related disasters, in particular, are increasing worldwide and expected to intensify with climate change. They disproportionately affect food insecure, poor people – over 75 percent of whom derive their livelihoods from agriculture. Agricultural livelihoods can only be protected from multiple hazards if adequate disaster risk reduction and management efforts are strengthened within and across sectors, anchored in the context-specific needs of local livelihoods systems.
This series of three webinars on Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (DRR/M) in agriculture is organized to:
1. Discuss the new opportunities and pressing challenges in reducing and managing disaster risk in agriculture;
2. Learn and share experiences about disaster risk reduction and management good practices based on concrete examples from the field; discuss how to create evidence and conditions for upscaling of good practices; and
3. Exchange experiences and knowledge with partners around resilience to natural hazards and climate-related disasters.
This webinar covered:
• measuring the benefits of farm-level disaster risk reduction practices in agriculture – approaches, methods and findings from FAO’s preliminary study;
• a case study from Uganda on how the agricultural practices for disaster risk reduction were implemented and monitored at farm level; and
• perspective from the Philippines on the challenges and opportunities to upscale the agriculture good practices for disaster risk reduction at national level.

7. The
Challenge
Ø To reliably produce increasing supplies and more varieties
of food, mainly through higher yields using less water and
other resource inputs in an environmentally friendly
manner – and at reasonable and affordable prices for
consumers
Ø This challenge must be met as the climate changes, and as
almost every input to the food production, processing and
consumption chain increases in cost.
Ø This can only be done by mobilizing technology in all
kinds of agriculture including smallholders, using all
sources of water and achieving much better coordination,
cooperation and partnerships among the major
stakeholders involved

Morocco is a highly water stressed country
with erratic rainfall and frequent droughts.
The country is reaching the end of the water
development era. Water resources
management is therefore shifting to the more
difficult task of ensuring economically,
socially and environmentally efficient water
allocation within the existing water resources
constraints.

Water
Issues
&
Constraints
• Water demand is growing fast;
• Water availability is falling to crisis

• Overexploitation of groundwater
• Shortages are compounded by
pollution
• Low water use efficiency in irrigation;

19. Water
Sector
Reforms
(1995/2009)
• The adoption of a long term strategy for an integrated
water resources management;
• The development of a new legal and institutional
framework to promote decentralized management and
increase stakeholder participation;
• Introducing economic incentives in water allocation
decisions through rational tariff and cost recovery;
• Taking capacity enhancing measures to meet
institutional challenges for the management of water
resources; and
• Establishing effective monitoring and control of water
quality to reduce environmental degradation

27. Conclusion
Two major breaks with the agricultural
development model of the past 50
years:
1. Overcoming dualisms: embracing the diversity
of ecological and agricultural production
systems and recognizing the need to increase
the capacities of different types of actor in the
sector
2. Actors centered approach: progress should
be based on an entrepreneurial spirit and
dynamic.
MohamedAitKadiCGDA
28. Lessons
learned
Ø The importance of transactional approaches
Ø The importance of decentralization
Ø The need to foster institutional innovation;
Ø Financing must be available to support
innovation and policy implementation (including
from the private sector/banks); and
Ø That progress should be based on an
entrepreneurial spirit and dynamic.
