Cet épisode met en lumière les défis et perspectives du secteur halieutique marocain à travers l’analyse du Pr. Abdelkabir Kamili. Il souligne que la durabilité des ressources marines n’est pas un frein à la croissance économique, mais une condition essentielle pour garantir la performance future du secteur, grâce à une gestion scientifique des stocks, la valorisation des produits et le développement d’une aquaculture durable. Face aux défis du changement climatique et à la volatilité des marchés internationaux, l’entretien met également en avant l’importance de la diversification, de l’innovation et du renforcement de la résilience du secteur.
