The 16th edition of the El Jadida Horse Show, organized under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, provides an opportunity to highlight the importance of the equine industry as part of the Generational Green strategy, said the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries, Rural Development, Water and Forests, Ahmed El Bouari.
Speaking to the press on the sidelines of the opening ceremony, chaired on Monday by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Moulay El Hassan at the Mohammed VI Exhibition Center, El Bouari emphasized that the “Generation Green” strategy pays particular attention to strengthening the Barb and Arab-Barb breeds, with the aim of preserving this heritage and promoting its central role in the traditional equestrian ecosystem.
He also highlighted the role of the Show in promoting the horse as an essential component of Morocco’s cultural heritage and a testament to the historical link between Moroccans and the world of horse riding.
Organized by the Horse Show Association, this event, which has gained increasing national and international recognition, offers a rich and diverse scientific, cultural, and recreational program.
Thus, several horse-related activities are organized as part of high-level competitions or exhibitions: the Barb Horse Champions Cup, the Arab-Barb Horse Champions Cup, the International A-Show for Purebred Arabians, the Moroccan Cup of Purebred Arabian Horse Breeders, the HM King Mohammed VI’s Grand Prix of Show Jumping and of course the HM King Mohammed VI’s Grand Prix of Tbourida.
This edition will also see the organization, for the first time, of the international competition for Purebred Arabian horse models and gaits in category “A” in the Title Show, recognition by international authorities of the excellence achieved by this competition.
The cultural and scientific aspects will not be overlooked, as horses will be examined in numerous conferences, workshops, and round tables, as well as in a variety of fun activities reserved for young audiences.
