Abstract

"The Middle Tessaout Perimeter, officially called 'Upper Tessaout', is situated in the piedmont of Atlas mountains, at 70 Kms in the East of Marrakech City. Before the construction of the Moulay Youssef dam in 1970, the plain was irrigated for centuries by traditional 'seguias' derived from the 'Oued Tessaout'."
