Details of Aquaculture Fish Farms in the Desert and Arid Lands of Israel
85 An overview on desert aquaculture in Israel Gideon Hulata Department of Poultry and Aquaculture Institute of Animal Science Agricultural Research Organization Bet Dagan, Israel E-mail: [email protected] Yitzhak Simon Ministry of Agriculture Extension Service Aquaculture Division Bet Dagan, Israel E-mail: [email protected] Hulata, G. & Simon, Y. 2011. An overview on desert aquaculture in Israel. In V. Crespi & A. Lovatelli, eds. Aquaculture in desert and arid lands: development constraints and opportunities. FAO Technical Workshop. 6–9 July 2010, Hermosillo, Mexico. FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Proceedings No. 20. Rome, FAO. 2011. pp. 85–112. SUMMARY The State of Israel has a very diverse climate. Most of the country is in a semi-arid zone, with distinct short winter (wet) and long summer (dry) seasons, and a low annual rainfall of around 500 mm (an overall multi-annual average). The country can be divided into two climatic regions: (1) the southern arid/semi-arid areas have very low annual precipitation (<100 mm) and consist of the Negev Desert and the Arava Valley; this arid zone extends also to the Jordan Valley where annual rainfall is below 300 mm; (2) the central-north of the country that has a temperate, Mediterranean climate and a relatively high annual rainfall (>600 mm). Israel has suffered from a chronic water shortage for years. In recent years, however, the situation has developed into a severe crisis; since 1998, the country has suffered from drought, and the annual rainfall was short of the multi-annual average in most of the years. -

INTRODUCCIÓN Hoy día existen en España más de 215 millones de olivos en una superficie de alrededor de 2 millones de hectáreas, lo que representa el 27% de la superficie mundial, y coloca a España en el primer puesto mundial en la producción y exportación de aceite de oliva. En el año 2000, la producción nacional de aceite de oliva superó el millón de toneladas. En ese mismo año, España exportó al mundo aceite de oliva por valor de más de 900.000 millones de Euros. La importancia de estos y muchos otros datos justifica sobradamente la realización de este estudio de mercado. Pero existen además otras razones para analizar en profundidad el mercado del aceite de oliva en Israel. Este es un país en constante crecimiento demográfico (casi 6 millones y medio de habitantes en 2001). El poder adquisitivo de los israelíes es elevado, situándose en torno a los 17.000 dólares. Culturalmente, a pesar de sus muchas peculiaridades, Israel tiene muchos puntos en común con España, dado el carácter mediterráneo de ambos países. -

Encountering the Nakba Slideshow Notes
Encountering the Nakba: Slideshow Notes Slide 1: What is the Nakba? ● “Nakba” is an Arabic word that means “great disaster” or “catastrophe.” On November 29, 1947, the UN General Assembly approved a plan to partition Mandate Palestine between Jews and [Palestinian] Arabs to follow the end of the British Mandate on May 14, 1948. ● About 750,000 [Palestinian] Arabs—the figure was later to be a major point of dispute, the Israelis officially speaking of some 520,000, the Palestinian themselves of 900,000-1,000,000—were ejected or fled from the areas that became the State of Israel and resettled in the territories that became known as the West Bank and Gaza Strip, as well as Transjordan, Syria, and Lebanon. In addition, some people also fled to Egypt, Iraq, and the states of the Arabian Peninsula. The war’s end found less than half of the Palestinians in their original homes—fewer than 150,000 in Israel, some 400,000 in the West Bank, and 60,000 in the Gaza Strip. ● Palestinians commemorate the Nakba on May 15, the day after the anniversary of Israel’s independence (Yom HaAtzmaut), according to the Gregorian calendar. ● The Nakba is a foundational event in the history of Palestine and of Israel. While most Jews in Israel aren’t familiar with the term, it is a central element of Palestinian collective identity. Its absence/presence (as we will see below) structures the identity of Israeli society and its reality. In the course of this slideshow we will see that the Nakba is present not only in the memories of Palestinians both within and outside of Israel, but is a palpable, physical presence throughout Israel, if one only looks with fresh eyes. -
