The vine may be regarded as the staple product of the hills and mountains and is cultivated extensively in Palestine. One can understand, therefore, how the wine industry which owes its origin and development to the munificence of Baron Edmund de Rothschild, has become one of the principal sources of wealth in the country. The Baron provided the early colonists with wine cellars and with all the most up-to-date machinery for the manufacture as well as the preservation of wine. His chief ambitio
...n was to develop the wine industry in Palestine, and he particularly selected Rishon-le-Zion in preference to the other colonies for his experiment. He planted more than one and a half million vines in the colony ; and a hundred and four huge vats each holding sixty thousand pints, were constructed. Then came a terrible crisis. The supply of Palestinian wines had considerably exceeded the demand, and had it not been for the Baron a most serious situation would have arisen. He now handed over the administration of the colonies to the Jewish Colonization Association, the area devoted 17 The Industrial Development of Palestine to Viticulture was reduced considerably, and various kinds of fruits such as olives and almonds were planted in place of the vines.
