In this week's North American Ag Spotlight Chrissy Wozniak talks to Israeli Dairy Management Specialist Tsur Hadar, who has been assisting in the recovery efforts on one of the 13 dairy farms brutally attacked in the October 7th terrorist attack near the Gaza Strip. Tsur tells the story of the kibbutz owned dairy farm on that day, and how life in Israel has changed forever. He gives his insight into the attack and how he feels about the mainstream media coverage.
He also explains Israel’s incredible agriculture industry. Israel is a global leader in agricultural technology, and is a testament to human ingenuity and technological innovation overcoming challenging environmental conditions in regions that were once considered unsuitable for agriculture.
With a BSc. in Agriculture Science, Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, Tsur Hadar has led an incredible life immersed in agriculture. From his roots on Kibbutz Shefayim where he managed a 1000 head dairy farm, to heading out to manage 1100 head dairy farm in Northern Italy. After returning to Israel he worked as consultant and chief dairy nutritionist for large dairy companies.
