If there is one event in the handover ceremony that summarizes the political earthquake caused by the 2026 elections, it is undoubtedly the scene witnessed at the headquarters of the Ministry of Agriculture on Mohammed V Street in Rabat. After about 19 years during which the “Green Ministry” remained a fortified fortress for the National Rally of Liberals, the new minister took overKhaled Hatimi(For the Authenticity and Modernity Party) and next to him is the Minister Delegate in charge of Marine FishingAhmed Al-Mahdi Al-Mazawari(From the Socialist Union) The keys to the sector are from Ahmed Al-Bawari and Zakia Al-Dariyoush.

A change in name and a change in doctrine… “Food sovereignty” instead of export slogans!

Behind the scenes of the handover of power revealed a fundamental change that did not escape the attention of observers: the phrasewas added “And food sovereignty”The official name of the ministry became “Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food Sovereignty.”

This semantic and political amendment carries with it a comprehensive review of priorities. After years of controversy over the export of vegetables and fruits that deplete water resources in exchange for the high prices of red meat, cottonseeds, and olive oil in internal markets, the new Minister, Khaled Hatimi, is required to achieve one equation that Moroccans repeat colloquially:“The Moroccan basket is the first before export”.

“Federalist Ahmed Mahdi Al-Mezouari entered the fishing sector alongside Khaled Hatimi. Agriculture has one meaning, behind the scenes of politics: especially whale, meat, and vegetables are returned to their normal price on Moroccan tables, and agricultural support is given to the small farmer and the real earner.”
