Who is working in Palestine today, at what, and for how much.

500 trees, 80 jerrycans, NIS 64,000: what one grove is worth if it can be picked

Mansour estimates his oil could bring about NIS 64,000 if he finishes the harvest before trouble starts. The Civil Administration's 2026 map lists 737 plots where coordination is required or Israelis are barred, over 70 more than last year, and says more than 100,000 families rely on olives.
