How Cannabis is Changing the Face of Israel’s Kibbutz Movement – Wait, What is a Kibbutz?

Cannabis has also caught the eye of kibbutz members, and now they are interested in planting marijuana instead of corn, olives, or wheat. In fact, a great deal of the kibbutzim in Israel have already pivoted to cannabis; some of the early adaptors have done so back in 2008 yet though others waited until 2016 to apply for a preliminary permit from the Israeli Ministry of Health. It just seems like a natural turn of events since Israel already has thousands of educated farmers because of the kibbutz system, as well as sophisticated R&D, cannabis startups, and excellent weather for growing cannabis.
