AGRICULTURE

Cutting-edge agricultural research

One of the most innovative areas of the Negev region’s success is also one of its most ancient: agriculture. The breakthroughs in arid-region cultivation made in the Negev are already feeding thousands in desert-like parts of the U.S., Africa, and Asia. If the moon and Mars are someday farmed, chances are that the technology will have been developed in the Negev.
