Farmers from the Arava have submitted an emergency request to Minister of the Interior Yishai, to the Minister of Agriculture, and Minister of Infrastructure, to extend work visas for 146 Thai agricultural workers, for another 5 years. The farmers claim that if those workers leave Israel, there will not be enough workers left to harvest this season's crops.
