The new reform in the field of medical cannabis has been launched and has led to a significant increase in the number of patients, which currently stands at more than 116,000, compared to 30,000 three years ago.
The expectation is that this number will continue to grow steadily by tens of percent over the next few years.
The reform also led to the flourishing of breeding farms, manufacturing plants and trading houses as well as the introduction of cannabis products into pharmacies as a prescription medicine.
The market for cannabis products in Israel is expected to cross the one billion shekel mark this year, and will show dramatic growth over the next few years.
