    The national production of essential crops such as cereals is highly exposed to climatic risks since they are mainly produced in arid and semi-arid lands, characterized by limited soil and water resources to satisfy crop growth requirements. Given the high economic weight of agriculture on the Moroccan economy (15 to 20% of NGP and 40% employment), any eventual temporal or seasonal variation of the climate will immediately effect national economy and food security. Quantitative analyses are key to understand the processes at stake and formulate adapted measures.

    This paper summarizes the findings of the Working Group II contributions to the International Panel on Climate Change’s Sixth Assessment Report which runs into over 3 000 pages, focusing on the assessment’s conclusions and their effect on agrifood systems. The Assessment Reports of the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are important as they provide policy makers with state of knowledge assessments on climate change, its implications, and potential future risks. These assessments also put forward adaptation and mitigation options.
