Technology and Time Changes in 2028
Modern devices handle DST transitions automatically, but some systems still require manual updates. In 2028, ensure your smart home devices, car navigation systems, and older electronics are properly configured. Many IoT devices now use internet time servers for automatic updates, reducing the burden on users in Morocco.
IT departments should be particularly vigilant about server time synchronization, especially for systems handling financial transactions or time-sensitive operations.
Agricultural Considerations
Farmers in Morocco have historically had mixed feelings about DST. While the original justification for DST included giving farmers more daylight hours, modern farming practices rely heavily on the sun's position rather than clock time. Dairy farmers particularly note that cows don't adjust their biological clocks, creating temporary disruptions in milking schedules.

Daylight Saving Time was first proposed by Benjamin Franklin in 1784 as a way to conserve candles.
Germany and Austria-Hungary were the first countries to use DST in 1916 during World War I.
