L'effort de colons français et des fellahs, un outillage agricole moderne permettront de subvenir aux besoins d'une population toujours plus nombreuse (actuellement 7 millions d'habitants). Le sous-sol offre des ressources considérables et son exploitation s'intensifie chaque jour (phosphates: 3 millions de tonnes pour 1946). À la base de l'industrialisation du Maroc, il y a le problème de l'énergie. La construction de nouveaux barrages doit d'ici 5 ans porter la production électrique à 650 millions de kwh. Le Maroc entre dans une voie nouvelle, mais les transformations respecteront les costumes et les traditions qui sont chères au pays marocain".
