SIDATTES: MDPP outlines its approach to recruiting women
In an interview published by Morocco World News at Erfoud's SIDATTES on 30 October 2026, Lamiaa Zaid says women account for 75% of Marrakech Date Palm Project's workforce.
She describes three-to-six-month internal training programmes, particularly for women from surrounding communities. These figures come from her testimony.
The company's website describes in-vitro propagation of selected date-palm varieties. It also outlines plant acclimatisation and technical support after sales. This provides context for the range of tasks, without establishing that every job requires prior scientific qualifications.
