Israel: Direct Subsidization of Israeli Farmers

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The Israeli Ministries of Finance and Agriculture are preparing to launch the biggest reform in the agricultural sector since the 1950s. The reform includes the lifting of production quotas and the removal of custom tariffs on imported food. Both programs, which were designed to protect producers, carried negative price impacts for Israeli consumers. The old protection system will be replaced by direct support to farmers.
