This study evaluates the effects of the free trade agreements between Morocco and the EU and Morocco and the U.S. on Moroccan labor migration out of agriculture and capital flows between agriculture and the rest of the economy, separately then together. The goal is to capture the economic importance of each one of these two linkages between freer trade on the one hand, and social welfare and sectoral growth on the other. The analyses are conducted within the framework of CGE models and through applications of Harris and Todaro (1970) and Corden and Findlay (1975). Results show that labor migration and capital movement decrease from the agricultural sector to the rest of the economy. Capital immobility has a negative effect on the whole economy: most outputs (except in the public administration sector which uses no capital), factors' incomes, household welfare, saving and international trade fall under the free trade agreements. When capital is the only mobile factor, most of the effects of freer trade are reversed: the only sector that suffers from freer trade is services, most factors' incomes increase excluding those used in irrigated agriculture and rural but non-agricultural areas; as a result most households except the rural poor ones are better off; private and foreign saving increase as well as international trade. When both labor migration and capital formation and mobility are represented, results are mixed, but predominantly resembling those obtained under the labor mobility and capital immobility assumption. The simulations where only one factor is mobile show the importance of the role played by capital accumulation on household welfare, saving, and international trade. It indicates the need for policies that provide stronger incentives to save and support more capital-intensive industries in order to take advantage of freer trade. Policies that encourage labor mobility are also desirable. Sensitivity analyses, conducted under the more realistic assumption that both factors are mobile, solidify some assessments and reveal the ambiguity of others.
