Biography
Shmueli attended Meir Shfeya agricultural high school, before gaining an LLB at university.
Between 1974 and 1977 he was a member of the Golan Settlements Committee, before serving as treasurer and co-ordinator of Ein Vered moshav between 1977 and 1984. He has also served as treasurer of Eliad moshav.
From 1984 until 1992 he owned a company importing and exporting agricultural supplies, before becoming director-general of Tzomet in 1992, a position he held until 1996. Between 1996 and 1998 he worked as chairman of the Citrus Fruit Marketing Board.
In the 1996 Knesset elections he missed out on a seat, but entered the Knesset on 30 November 1998 as a replacement for Pini Badash, who following a new law, had to resign in order to remain head of Omer local council. Following the split of the Likud-Gesher-Tzomet alliance, Shmueli represented Likud. He was placed thirty-second on the Likud list for the 1999 elections,[1] but the party won only 19 seats and Shmueli lost his seat.
In 2001 he was appointed agricultural advisor to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon.
