From drip irrigation to natural pesticides, farms in Israel are very impressive. As we traveled in the Galilee area, we saw beautiful crops and farm lands. Coming from Idaho, Garth and I have loved seeing the beautiful farm lands and never realized there were so many farms in Israel.
Fields of squash.
Fields of wheat.
Can anyone guess what kind of trees these are?
These are mango trees in bloom.
Grape fields
Banana crops are covered with a netting to keep in the moisture. You'll see acres and acres of banana trees.
We also saw fields of grapes, tomatoes, corn, and citrus farms. Despite Israel's lack of water, Israel's agriculture continues to thrive and supplies most of the country's food needs. It is a pleasure to shop for fresh vegetables in the markets close by and we have found that our diets consist now of more vegetables and fruit and less meat.
