The upgrade of the socio-cultural equipments as schools and hospitals of the commune is imperative because it does not seem logical to maintain, a space in a state of under-development near the capital, which the population, and especially the young people, find unacceptable.
The intensification and the diversification of the activities that generate incomes, have to be developed with the socio-cultural structures. The development of the recreation and tourism activities must be investigated. The same applies to the small professions in contact with the everyday life of the population.
According to the estimates, the current farm production remains much lower than the demand. Indeed, the visits of souks and the discussions with the local population showed that a big part of the consumer products result from the market of Salé which is furnished from the Gharb, Témara and several distant regions. It is with the farmers who have possibilities of financing, where we find systems led in a modern way introducing drip irrigation and intensive cultivation.
