The argan tree is especially known in the south of Morocco, but in this paper we present the experience of its introduction in Moroccan northern, in a rural commune called Snada, located at 45 km from the city of Al-Hoceima, and 10 km from the Mediterranean coast. The experiment started by planting the tree in 2007, and led in 2012 to fruiting bodies containing argan oil similar to that known in the Agadir region. It is therefore possible to generalize this experience in Moroccan northern and it will be a way to contribute to sustainable development of this region, which is very famous by the illicit cultivation of cannabis.
