تدبير الموارد المائية السطحية باعتماد تقنية المطفية في ظل التقلبات المناخية بحوض ورغة (الريف الأوسط، شمال المغرب)‎

الملخص EN

The social changes and climatic variations witnessed in the Ouergha hydrographic basin as well as the simultaneous decrease in the amount of rainfall coupled with its poor spatial and temporal distribution and longer periods of drought are all held responsible for the severe water shortage and crisis that is already acute in the region especially in the communes of Aïn aicha, Azrizar and Bouhouda.

The geological structure of the region is another obstacle as it is composed of impervious clay rocks which do not allow to form or feed a water table resistant to long-term drought sequences.

On this basis, water users in the Ouergha hydrographic basin have invented new techniques and alternatives to efficiently manage water sources in order to ensure a sufficient quantity for the population, livestock and local agriculture; reservoirs (Matfiya).

Reservoir is a technique for the management of water resources and its rational use emerged in the region.

Reservoirs are of a few cubic meters buried in the ground, which are used to store rainwater from the winter season, for reuse during the drought of the summer season.

This technique has become the solution to the scarcity of water ensuring the water supply of the local population, the watering of their flocks and the irrigation of their vegetable gardens pending the arrival of a radical and final: solution; to know the connection of the Ouergha watershed campaign to the national network of drinking water.
