Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Urban Expansion and Its Impact on Agricultural Land in the Casablanca Metropolitan Periphery
Casablanca, Morocco’s most populous and economically dynamic metropolis, is undergoing rapid and unregulated expansion, leading to accelerated agricultural land artificialization, landscape fragmentation, and growing socio-environmental vulnerability in peri-urban territories. This study investigates the spatio-temporal dynamics of urban expansion within a 40 km buffer around the city, using multi-temporal Landsat imagery (2015–2025), a GIS-based…
Ethnobotanical study of wild edible plants gathered and sold by Jbala society in the Tingitan Peninsula (Northwest Morocco)
Wild edible plants significantly contribute to food security and local livelihoods in northwest Morocco. Women vendors act as key custodians of traditional ecological knowledge, and local markets serve as hubs for the preservation and transmission of these cultural practices. Supporting these systems can contribute to biodiversity conservation and food sovereignty
The impact of agricultural policies on agrobiodiversity management in a pre-Rif farming system in Morocco
Agrobiodiversity is widely recognized as essential for smallholder agriculture, particularly for enhancing resilience to disruptions which are increasingly frequent and intense. However, whether agricultural policies support or hinder agrobiodiversity in these systems remains debated. A deeper understanding of how policies intersect with other change drivers and local practices is crucial to improving decision-making. Using a case study from nort…
Social strategies to access land influence crop diversity in northwestern Morocco
Much evidence supports the ecological and agronomic benefits of diversity, of both crops and environments, for building resilience and sustainability in agroecosystems. Farmers' knowledge about crop diversity is well‐documented, but aside from studies on how farmers exchange seeds and knowledge through networks, the interactions of social factors and the diversity of crops and cultivated environments have been mainly overlooked. One factor receiv…
Pollination of the Mediterranean Fig Tree, Ficus Carica L
From Traditional Farming in Morocco to Early Urban Agroecology in Northern Mesopotamia
Published by Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis GroupWe integrate functional weed ecology with crop stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis to assess their combined potential for inferring arable land management practices in (semi-)arid regions from archaeobotanical assemblages. Weed and GIS survey of 60 cereal and pulse fields in Morocco are combined with crop sampling for stable isotope analysis to frame assessment of agricultu…
Disentangling the effect of farming practice from aridity on crop stable isotope values
Agriculture has played a pivotal role in shaping landscapes, soils and vegetation. Developing a better understanding of early farming practices can contribute to wider questions regarding the long-term impact of farming and its nature in comparison with present-day traditional agrosystems. In this study we determine stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values of barley grains from a series of present-day traditionally managed farming plots in Moroc…
