What is Agricultural Subsidies

Within the agricultural strategy called Green Morocco Plan launched by the Moroccan government, the funds are allocated by the agricultural development fund to encourage investments. In this context, to manage the grant requests, the agricultural department uses an information system, which processes the files from their submission until the payment of the farmers. However, this system does not take into account the spatial data. This research aims to develop a geospatial model to study the distribution and dynamics of the allocated fund. Through this approach, policymakers will have a strategic key to survey the behavior of the spatial component, to manage funding applications, and to better manage allowed funds. The methodological approach adopted consists of carrying out a mapping of the real world identifying the needs of the future system and modeling the process of the geo-spatial tool. The result of the model will be used to develop and implement a spatial tool for policymakers to improve land information management related to the funded agricultural project.
