The nomads of Saghro denounce law 13-113 concerning pastures




Nomads play an important role in the regeneration of grazing and forests in Morocco, bringing them marginalized by the Moroccan state. They are called nomads in Moroccan society, they live in the margins of the process of production, despite producing organic meat, sensory quality.

Thousands of Amazigh tribal families in southeastern Morocco live in the margins. Most of them take the caves of the Saghro mountains as shelters. Despite the existence of silver mines under their feet, they are forced to break the crust in the peaks of the Atlas Mountains.

Their children are never in school and their wives may die at the time of delivery. Their dead, at the time of their journey on pastures, are abandoned where they died. They have cemeteries all over the Atlas Mountains.

They leave Saghro, with their families, when the area is devoid of grass, to reach the grass-rich pastures of the Anti-Atlas, to feed their flocks.

They are deprived of human rights and the authorities never stop hunting, harassing and extorting them to steal their property. Law 13-113 approves all these acts of modern discrimination in Morocco.

In a meeting with the authorities of Taroudant in the rural district of Assaki on January 31, 2019, with the presence of the peasant union, forest professionals of Tamtatoucht denounce the law 13-113 which requires the authorizations of the State to exploit the pasture Amazigh communities in the Anti-Atlas in southern Morocco.

A resultant law of agricultural class policies, which aims at the ease of grabbing collective land of poor peasants by big landowners.
