Israel will grow marijuana on an industrial scale
According to the statistics of experts from the Israeli Ministry of Agriculture, the cultivation of medical marijuana is becoming more and more profitable. The main condition is to allocate at least 4 thousand square meters of land for its cultivation. The calculations made show that only in this case, export volumes can reach 1-4 billion shekels annually. In dollar terms, this is 285 million - 1.2 billion.
To increase volumes, government assistance is needed. Understanding this, the government provides various subsidies and water quotas to those farms that grow cannabis for medical purposes. They also receive informational support.
More and more scientists are convinced that marijuana does not deserve to be treated superficially, which means that doctors need to deepen their knowledge of its healing properties more and more. That is why Israel started a campaign aimed at training doctors qualified to prescribe medical marijuana. In addition, they became graduates. As confirmation - the presence of an appropriate diploma. Interestingly, a visit to such a specialist will cost 72 dollars or 250 shekels.
All recommendations for candidates were considered by the Ministry of Health itself, and their approval was carried out by the heads of the department of the ministry. Today, about 25,000 residents of Israel are licensed to use marijuana for personal (medical) purposes. This was made possible by the decriminalization of cannabis in 207. The new rules state that only heavy weed smokers will be arrested. The rest face a fine of $ 270, and if it is issued again, the amount will double. As for the cultivation and sale of ordinary hemp, these actions have remained in the list of criminal offenses.
