SIAM – International Agricultural Trade Fair in Morocco

The Embassy of the Kingdom of Eswatini to the Kingdom of Morocco had the honor of attending the 15^th Edition of the Moroccan International Agricultural Trade Fair which took place in Meknes from the 2^nd to 7^th of May 2023. The agricultural sector is an essential core of the economy of Morocco, it is a major player in rural development, responsible for the social stability of the country, and is the proof of safety for future generations. To that end, the SIAM, through its role as a platform for exchanges, connections, and exposure, is contributing to the development of the agricultural sector. International exhibitors optimize their presence at the Show, help multiply business opportunities, and strengthen their impact on the global market.

Mr. Jabulani Mabuza, the Honorable Minister of Agriculture, led the delegation from the Kingdom of Eswatini. He also attended a high-level conference that took place on the sidelines of the SIAM, explored exhibitions, visited several agricultural sites, and met officials from the OCP, a company producing phosphate-based fertilizers.
