Coppicing in Moroccan Agropastoralism🐐🌳🐑
In Morocco, tree species well-suited for coppicing include Atlas pistachio, oxyphilic and dimorphic ash trees, thuriferous junipers, evergreen and cork oaks, argan trees, thujas, and acacias. These trees support the agrosylvopastoral economy, providing various products such as fodder, fruits, construction and heating wood. They are crucial for the well-being of herds, both nutritionally and health-wise.
Shepherds play a crucial role in their cultivation and preservation.
