Demonstration platforms
Because seeing is believing!
Al Moutmir offers a range of demonstration platforms in different provinces of the Kingdom and covering several crops (cereals & pulses, arboriculture, vegetables, etc). The demonstration platforms are a powerful outreach tool for demonstrating scientific recommendations and agricultural innovations.
Co-constructed and implemented in partnership with the agricultural ecosystem in particular the scientific ecosystem namely the National Institute of Agronomic Research (INRA), the Hassan II Agronomic and Veterinary Institute (IAV), the National School of Agriculture (ENA) and the Mohammed VI Polytechnic University of Benguerir. These platforms are installed in the fields of volunteer farmers and allow demonstrating the considerable impact of the adoption of the best agricultural practices on the yield and the quality of agricultural production, the income generated and on the balanced consumption of fertilizers.
Each platform relates to the application of the best inputs, agricultural operations & techniques, from tilling the soil to harvesting. This allows, as the crop cycle progresses, to compare between the impact of good practices versus the usual practices of the farmers. The objective is to create an emulation and induction effect carried by the farmers who hosted these demonstration platforms and who become real ambassadors of good practices and guarantee the continuity of the initiative.
These demonstration platforms benefit from close scientific monitoring provided by Al Moutmir agronomists and experts, mobilized from various national scientific institutions. An Integrated Crop Management Program (ICP) is set up for each platform and covers the different stages of the crop.
