On June 5, 2026, the Wali of the Souss-Massa region, Saïd Amzazi, convened a meeting with poultry sector professionals, investors, and agricultural officials to address the acute crisis affecting the industry. The meeting aimed to find solutions to the sector's challenges, which include rising feed costs and market disruptions.
According to local reports, the crisis has led to significant financial losses for poultry farmers in the region, with many facing potential bankruptcy. The Souss-Massa region is a key producer of poultry products in Morocco, and the crisis has raised concerns about food supply and prices.
During the meeting, stakeholders discussed measures to stabilize the sector, including potential subsidies for feed and improved market access. The Wali emphasized the need for coordinated efforts between public and private sectors to overcome the crisis.
No specific decisions were announced immediately, but further meetings are planned to develop a comprehensive action plan. The situation remains critical, with farmers calling for urgent government intervention.
