Artificial Intelligence for the benefit of Morocco's Agriculture

Morocco's permanent representative to the United Nations, Ambassador Omar Hilale, highlighted on September 30 that agricultural sciences and new technologies are an important part of the country's new economic projections. Morocco's Green Plan reached a goal of strengthening localized irrigation, one of the three major components of its Irrigation Strategy. The high-level meeting addressed "the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in achieving post-Covid food security." "Today, these sciences and technologies are helping to increase the production of small and medium farmers," Ambassador Hilale emphasized during the meeting. He also explained the crucial role that AI plays in "helping to produce more food with less water and energy."
