The transfer of the scientific center to the north in order to build houses with expensive apartments on the vacant square in the center is called the development of the north. This is nonsense.

This research centre is critical to the economy and food security of Israel and is a global leader in horticultural innovation. Please be more creative in how you manage such vital national resources.

Volcani Center for me is a great institution that makes lots of research for the world, and they help other developing countries tranfering knowledge to their professionals. I´m so glad to know many great professionals that work there and love their jobs, doing what they like the most. Always research and teach it.

The Volcani Center has been of immeasurable benefit to the international community. It has been a center of excellence in Agricultural Research and Education. I was privileged to participate in the R&D course on Post Harvest Technology of Fresh commodities in 2012. Moving this center to a remote location in Israel would grossly limit participation of the international community. Let the center remain in it's current strategic location.

volcani center is serving as a bridge to disseminating and acquiring latest technologies in the field of R & D from the presently situated place i.e. central Israel all over the world. it is serving israeli farmers in a better manner from volcani center having better access to whole of country geographically.

From my perception, I strongly dismiss the idea of relocation of Volcani Centre because Volcani Centre is the nodal research agency which attracts foreign research collaborators in the various disciplines of agriculture. I had opportunity twice to closely work with scientists of Institute of Soil, Water and Environ Sciences who are doing impactful research for benefit of all. Relocation of the centre to some remote area in the centre of Israel will not only result in loosing local scientific talent but also discourage foreign scientist's collaboration.

I am currently collaborating with a colleague at the Volcani Center. The center has major impact on Israel's agricultural research developments and achievements and should continue its important work at its current location.

You know your country better that anyone else, but may I ask you to let reason and science prevail for another 95 years.

I don't support the relocation of the Volcani Center. It's central location makes it perfect for easy accessibility.

If possible it will be recommended not to move the Center, because it will affect the quality of research which is of benefit of Israel and the world

The reason for proposed relocation of Volcani is not science or agriculture-based and would negatively affect the impact of the institution.

The reason for proposed relocation of Volcani is not science or agriculture-based. It is political to accommodate political moves of Minister Arieli. Relocation will delay discoveries essential to the well-being of Israeli agriculture and world reputation of Israel in agricultural advancement.

"Transfer to the North will destroy Volcani Center and will severely damage agricultural research in Israel. Closure and destruction take only an instant; building an Institute of this stature takes a century!" I agree with California Avocado comments https://californiaavocadocomments.wordpress.com/2016/03/23/move-the-aro-volcani-center-is-a-senseless-decision-by-the-state-of-israel-it-will-affect-agricultural-research-all-over-the-world/

Really it is very bad decision to shift the volcano centre to other part. Really it will reduce the quality of the research. After establishment of any research Institute for the benefit of farmers and private industry. Even if you are planning for shifting its really there will be decline in over all GDP of the country.
