The Moroccan fruit industry is preparing to reach 350.000 tons of production of strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries in the short term, an objective that reinforces the sector as a very important factor for the country's economy. The production of red fruits in Morocco is developed in an approximate area of 13.500 hectares, of which 4.080ha are dedicated to the cultivation of blueberries, 4.600ha to raspberries, and 3.080ha to the production of strawberries, of which 75% are located in the north of the country.
