Morocco Faces Olive Oil Price Surge, Sparking Government Inquiry

In a question addressed to the Minister of Agriculture, Fatima Tamni indicated that the price of olive oil has reached 150 dirhams per liter, asking what measures he intends to take to stop the surge in olive oil prices, a product widely consumed by Moroccans.

The parliamentarian of the Democratic Left Federation has urged the government to seriously address this issue in order to quickly find a sustainable solution to this crisis shaking the olive oil sector.

Tamni did not fail to denounce the poor management of this file by the department led by Mohamed Saddiki, calling on the government to authorize the import of this product to meet the strong local demand.
