Israel Economy

By Anonymous

 

Economic Background 

Israel started off as a very poor country. It has very little agricultural and industrial production. The economy though has grown drastically since 1948. They live well although they have very few natural resources and a limited water supply. Israel depends on the U.S for economic well being. Most businesses are privately owned but a large amount are owned by the government. A influential organization of labor known as the General federation of labor owns a large number of businesses, farms and industries. Most of the people work in the service industries are employed by the government or by a government owned business. most of Israels income comes from tourism, for example restaurants and hotels.

Coronavirus impact on economy 

Israel started tracking peoples cell phones and letting them know that they had come in contact with a virus carrier and ordering them a quarantine with this they reached a very large rate of unemployment. They closed most businesses and they told people not to move from place to place as much. Palestinians stopped traveling to Israel which caused the economy to go down dramatically. Palestinians could not afford to get a high number of coronavirus cases and alt of them were getting infected in Israel. Israels economy depends largely on the Palestinians that would no longer travel to Israel

Foreign aid and  remittances  (money sent home) from Jamaicans working abroad are helpful sources of national income. Tourism also provides much income for the nation. The leading tourist centers in Jamaica include Kingston, Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios. About a sixth of Jamaica’s people work in agriculture. Sugar cane is the most important crop. Other crop products include bananas, citrus fruits, coconuts, coffee, and yams. Farmers raise beef cattle, chickens, goats, and hogs. But the nation’s farms do not produce enough food for all the people, and so Jamaica must import much of its food. Mining provides much of Jamaica’s income. Jamaica is one of the world’s largest producers of bauxite. Plants near some of the bauxite mines remove a mineral compound called  alumina  from the bauxite ore. Jamaicans also mine gypsum and li
