Double the actual acreage to overcome the seedling acreage
Chose better soil quality for planting
Encourage drip irrigation where possible
Work on kernel quality
Optimize orchard management
Develop packaging and processing industry
Develop marketing strategies to overstep importations to make the market prices more profitable to the small almond grower
Encourage Moroccan almond trade association
