As of June 1st, 2021, the Ministry of Health has lifted most covid-19 restrictions nationwide. The lifting of these restrictions are also applied in the Hebrew University campuses. Entry into the campus, including classrooms and labs, no longer requires presenting a Green Pass, a health declaration or a negative PCR test every 72 hours for unvaccinated individuals.
Wearing a mask in closed spaces is still required. 

The Robert H. Smith Faculty of Agriculture, Food and Environment has been a major contributor to Israel's remarkable achievements in agriculture, through its groundbreaking research and education of generations of students. 

The world around us is changing, there is growing awareness of the state of the environment, and there is growing concern due to the over-exploitation of natural resources by mankind. Reduction of water and food resources combined with population growth can lead to hunger. This "new world" has led the Faculty to commit to a responsible role in preserving the environment for future generations, and while doing so, to continuously search for ways to increase sustainable food and water resources.
