Israel Invests in Agricultural Education

The Tel-Hai College located in the north of Israel announced the opening of a new research station which will focus on biotechnology and food, with an emphasis on dairy and wine.

The station was funded by the Negev Development Authority of the Israeli government.

 

Eli Malka, head of the Golan municipality, said: “The founding and development of this research station is an important step to create regional cooperation. Our main challenge is to strengthen partnerships and create a deeper understanding amongst the educational community, as to the potential of the station.”

The research station is one of five stations, each of which focuses on a different arena, including: medical, water industry, biotechnology and food, environmental science and agriculture, technology and physics.
