Summary: | Urban agriculture is considered one of the cornerstones of sustainable development, acting as a “magic wand” to address challenges related to food security, energy, and environmental sustainability, especially in a city like Marrakech. The latter is facing growing issues associated with urbanization and population expansion, jeopardizing its residents’ food, economic, and energy security. This study aims to shed light on the current situation of the agricultural sector in the city of Marrakech and to identify constraints (both human and natural) affecting its agricultural sustainability. The goal is to develop agricultural solutions capable of strengthening the agricultural sector and maintaining resilience and sustainability in this red metropolis.
