The research included meetings with relevant Ministries and public organizations, in order to test the acceptance and feasibility of the suggested policies. An economic analysis was conducted in order to assess whether the proposed instruments might motivate farmers to sustain the agricultural cultivation.
Important means to sustain agriculture in Israel, are financial support of land cultivation (payment per hectare of cultivated land) and income insurance, which insures the farmer against drastic changes in prices of the agricultural products. It is suggested that the proposed support will be managed by an insurance fund, that will support the farmers according to individual agreements and environmental obligations that the farmer will take upon himself.
