Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal requires the Ministers of Finance and Agriculture to set a maximum profit for each type of agricultural produce, in accordance with the price supervision law. Businesses selling agricultural produce must prominently display the price at which the producer sold the produce, the profit, and the total price. A consumer who asked for a price not higher than the maximum price and was refused may claim compensation from the business without the need to prove damage. The law will initially apply to a defined list of fruits and vegetables, and will take effect two months after its publication.
