| | | | |  | Argan is included in the Wikipedia for Schools, see Argan at Schools Wikipedia. Please maintain high quality standards; if you are an established editor your last version in the article history may be used so please don't leave the article with unresolved issues, and make an extra effort to include free images, because non-free images cannot be used on the DVDs. | | Have started off this page - re-using some text of my own from other projects. Please wikify or add links (from or to) as appropriate. Some pics of argan oil processing would be great. If anyone can convert the photo credit to a link to the relevant Flick file, that would be great too.

- Thanks for that. By the way, are you sure argan is an orchard crop? My impression is that it is not planted, but is a wild tree. In which, orchard wouldn't be the right word. Mark Nesbitt 15:00, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
- You may well be right; I was a little hesitant about putting it in but couldn't think of something else. Though equally, for regeneration of new trees to continue, there must be some human control (mainly stopping grazing, but also incomplete fruit harvesting and/or planting). - MPF 15:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

- Yes you are right, for now its a wild tree, but there are some experimentations going on to plant it, that would be of great benefits for the locals, as the tree is alas disapearing very quickly, because of desrtification and overgrazing --Khalid hassani 14:52, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Needs cleanup A lot of the text here could use a lot of cleanup. I edited the fruit section because it was particularly bad. It stated 8k of fruit is the average annual yield. But 8k what? 8 kilograms? 8,000 fruits? I edited it to say kilograms because nothing else really makes sense. If somebody knows for sure, please make the change. Freshyill 14:14, 5 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] Tree goats I think someone should put this in: [1] [2]. Remember 23:08, 5 January 2007 (UTC) [edit] I have a good pic I personally took of goats on argan I don't have the time to followup/edit/submit it. If someone wants to do that, please contact me at as6699@hotmail.com. I would not charge for use. Totally free, but I would appreciate acknowledgement.
