摘要
Forests and woodland ecosystems in Morocco play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and providing ecological and economic services. Despite advances in administration, technology, and research tools in Morocco, these ecosystems have received limited attention. This paper highlights the importance of forests and woodland ecosystems in Morocco, focusing on their economic significance and the factors that pose a threat to them. Furthermore, guidelines are provided for appropriate conservation measures and future research to better understand the current situation of forests in Morocco. The results show that Moroccan forests and woodlands are rich in flora and fauna, including species with significant economic value, such as medicinal plants. These ecosystems also provide important ecological services, such as serving as habitats for endemic and threatened species. Despite the efforts of the government, human activities have negatively affected these ecosystems. To ensure that these resources are preserved for future generation, we recommend considering the human element as a central factor in all conservation approaches and actions.
