An agronomic scheme for the implementation of an irrigation and drainage system on 20,000 hectares was provided. This included choice of crops, crop rotations, irrigation systems and irrigation scheduling including expected water usage patterns and also the economics of irrigated agriculture – crop revenues, input costs and expected profits based on local market data. A highlight of the project included an economic analysis of the whole project. Agricultural design provided as part of the Tahal Team engaged in consulting to the project.
Igal Flash and Cindy his wife were murdered by Hamas killers in their home in Kfar Aza, in the horrific attack that took place in the Western Negev on Saturday,
october 7.
Igal, was one of the professional pillars of field crops in Israel, especially in the cotton industry and in particularly in the Western Negev. They were brutally murdered in their home at Kfar Aza.
Igal continued a tradition of agriculture in this arid region, personally contributing to the continuous development from ancient rain-fed methods to the modern innovations of the 21st century. Building this robust agricultural environment not only boosted the settlement of a desert region with a thriving local economy, but also led to significant technological progress shared globally.
Further to the ceremony held in Israel we join the family in its mourning and in the fundraising efforts aimed to rebuild their lives, cover funeral expenses in Israel and the memorial in the US.
