The following are the reasons why the Central Canaan was a region in which it was difficult to carry out farming:

  • The absence of freshwater resources in the region.
  • The expanse of deserts in all the neighboring directions and the absence of arable land suitable for agriculture.
  • The hot and dry climate which is not favorable for the growth of most vegetation.
  • The eternal conflicts between the Arabs and the Israelites in the region.
