Exploring the resilience of vegetable growers in a country facing rapid environmental and socio-economic changes, the case of fresh tomato in Morocco

摘要

In a world characterized by globalization of agricultural markets and climate change, farmers are increasingly exposed to various types of stresses and shocks, hence the need to build their resilience. For horticultural growers, this is all the more striking as vegetable production, such as tomato, is input demanding and therefore dependent on various exogenous factors. Moreover, the perishability of fresh fruits and vegetables exposes producers to significant market price volatility, increasing their vulnerability.
