Overlooked and Underfunded Casualties of the War:
Food Security and
Labor crisis
The western Negev
provides 70% of Israel’s fresh produce
– Times of Israel
The kibbutzim and moshavim farming communities in the Western Negev are responsible for producing the nation's food and pioneering climate-resilient technologies for the world.
The October 7th attacks devastated these farming communities.
Over $500 million in farmer income lost
40,000 hectares of agricultural land damaged
Vital farming equipment, including tractors and planters, destroyed or stolen
The killing and kidnapping of foreign workers has caused a labor crisis and shortage of more than 10,000 experienced farmworkers
Regrow Israel:
The Farmer's Fund
Rebuilding and strengthening agriculture in the western Negev is essential. It underpins Israel's food security, the local economy and is a powerful symbol of the Israeli pioneering spirit.
ReGrow Israel was established days after the October 7th attacks by Israeli farmers, NGOs, and agricultural experts and is supported by global leaders. It is the only fund ready to act immediately to restore the damage AND grow back stronger for the future.
