مياه العيون في إقليم شيشاوة في المغرب بين الوفرة و النضوب : دراسة في العوامل و النتائج

Abstract EN

Spring water is highly valued within the national territory of Morocco, especially in the mountainous regions and slopes as it is vital for human settlement within these areas.

It is also one of the basic elements for achieving local development in the light of the economic and social transformations taking place in the Moroccan countryside in general.

In this context, this paper attempts to highlight the critical importance of water springs in the province of Chichaoua, as it is a unique natural heritage and the most important renewable soil resource in the region.

It also has a great role in organizing and structuring the field.

However, a combination of agricultural intensification, excessive irrigation via digging wells, and successive years of drought (as a result of climate change), have caused drying up of these springs.

This impedes any plans for development and renewal in this region.
