Located in the southwest of Morocco, this biosphere reserve covers a vast intramontane plain of more than 2,560,000 hectares, bordered by the High Atlas and Anti-Atlas Mountains and open to the Atlantic in the west. The area is known for its endemic species, the Argan (Argania spinose), which is not only important in terms of conservation, but also for research and socio-economic development. The Argan oil has multiple uses in cooking, medicines and cosmetics. The trees are also used as fuelwood for cooking and heating.
