The Center for Agricultural Economic Research (CAECR) is a nonprofit organization established in 1968 and supported by the Hebrew University, the Government of Israel, Bank Leumi Le-Israel and Bank Hapoalim. The Center supports research projects, scientific conferences and international collaborations, and publishes the Journal of Rural Cooperation. Research findings of the Center's research fellows are published in the Discussion Paper Series. The decision of the Center to publish a study reflects its judgment that the work has met the standards of scientific research. The interpretations and conclusions of the study are, however, those of the author, and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Center or its Board of Trustees.
