Havat Shikmim

Havat Shikmim is a sheep ranch in Israel that belongs to the family of former Prime Minister of Israel Ariel Sharon. It is located in the northern Negev Desert, near Sderot. Sharon purchased the ranch in 1972 with the help of a loan from Meshulam Riklis. The ownership of the ranch was turned over to Sharon's sons Omri and Gilad, to avoid conflict of interest when Sharon became Agriculture Minister of Israel and Industry, Trade and Labour Minister of Israel.
