Il est cultive au Maroc depuis des siecles dans les zones montagneuses de la region de Taliouine-Taznakht, reputee par son safran de haute qualite a l’echelle nationale et internationale. Il est utilise pour ses proprietes culinaires, medicinales et cosmetiques. Cette etude consiste a evaluer l’importance socio-economique du safran pour les menages des zones montagneuses de cette region et son role dans la reduction de la pauvrete et de l’inegalite. Une enquete socio-economique a ete conduite sur un echantillon de 264 menages repartis sur six communes rurales representatives de la region. Les resultats montrent que le safran est la principale source de revenu pour les menages, qui sont generalement pauvres, et c’est une source importante de travail, notamment pour les femmes. Le safran est une voie prometteuse pour la reduction de la pauvrete et de l’inegalite dans cette region. Abstract Saffron is the most expensive spice in the world. It has been grown in Morocco for centuries in the region of Taliouine-Taznakht, a region with a great saffron reputation nationally and internationally. It has been used for its culinary, medicinal and cosmetic properties. The objectives of this study are to assess the socio-economic importance of saffron for households of the mountainous areas of this region and to study its role of saffron in poverty and inequality reduction in those areas. We conducted a socio-economic survey among 264 households in six representative rural communities in the region. Saffron is the dominant source of income for these rural households, many of whom are poor. Saffron is a labor intensive crop, and women play a crucial role in the production of saffron. Saffron is a promising way to stimulate local development and help to alleviate poverty and inequality in that region. |
