Amine Bennani

Based in northern Morocco, Amine Bennani produces fruits and vegetables—notably blueberries on 15 ha and 8 ha of avocado, potatoes—while also leading Morocco’s berry producers association. With roughly three decades of import/distribution experience, he focuses on farmer education, and practical innovation. Today he’s accelerating drone adoption for his crop protection and yield forecasting and spearheading a local bio-stimulants company to increase yields. Bennani is a vocal advocate for smallholders who face high production costs and limited technology access—often under policies shaped without sufficient farmer input.
