Summary findings
- Morocco’s growth performance over the last decade has not been strong enough to reduce poverty.
- Growth has been volatile because of the impact of recurrent drought conditions on agricultural output.
- Economic conditions improved in 2002 despite a less favorable international environment, which was marked by a decline in tourism and external demand.
- Real GDP growth reached 4.5 percent reflecting a further rise in agricultural output and somewhat higher growth in the nonagricultural sectors.
