Moroccan exports of fruits and vegetables passed from 478 thousand tons in 2009-2010, to 529 thousand tons in 2010-2011, with an increase of 9%, according to the latest statistics of the Moroccan Ministry of Agriculture.
These good results come from good weather conditions for three consecutive seasons, the Ministry highlights, as reported by Agrapress.
