So far, Morocco's rural provinces have contributed little to the country's economic growth. Between 10 and 15% of the population lives in poverty. Youth unemployment is 23%, rural youth are disproportionately affected by unemployment and underemployment. The incomes of those working in rural provinces of whom more than 40% are active in agriculture, rarely exceed the level of subsistence. Local processing and value-adding of agricultural products is low. A large proportion of SME in rural provinces has low profitability and low competitiveness.
