Oasis: agriculture and sedentary life

In the presaharic area of South Morocco, agriculture and sedentary life are limited to the middle of the valleys, where water from the Grat Atlas Mountains or from the Jebel Saghro makes irrigation possible.

These fertile valleys are real oasis surrounded by arid land. Water comes to them from a river or from subterranean springs by wells or from a Khettara.
