NORTHWESTERN NEGEV
– This is a huge cultivated organic barley field which was Aviv.
- This is a volunteer field of barley, just outside of the organic field, but on the same property. It is the strain of barley we typically see in a volunteer field, as opposed to a cultivated field. We saw a good amount of Aviv in this field, but as it’s a volunteer field, so there we saw all states of development.
- This is a huge volunteer field of barley, in which we found large amounts which were close to being Aviv.
- This is a huge tell (raised mound marking the site of an ancient city) with tons of volunteer barley. We only inspected the West side, because that’s the side which gets the strongest sunlight and therefore is more developed. It had lots of patches of Aviv and Ripe barley, which may be a result of sides of the tell blocking the elements and because it’s a big mountain rainwater falls down. It should be noted that there were also lots of parts on this West side, which were blocked from the good sunlight, and were therefore less developed.
