The co-operative principle is applied in the purchase and sale of produce and agricultural requirements. 1944H. F. Infield Co-operative Living in Palestine (1946) iii. 46 The Moshav is intermediate between individualism and the Kvutza. Here the settler lives in his own house, owns a piece of land and some cattle. Ibid. xi. 122 From 1936 to 1939, new Kvutzot were 26, new Moshve-Ovdim only 9. The ration of Kvutzot to Moshve established has doubled. 1950G. Mikes Milk & Honey 136 Some halfway solutions have been attempted. First the Moshav Ovdim, in which each family has its own unit of land. The purchase of supplies and the marketing of agricultural products is on a cooperative basis. These..are smallholders' settlements in which every farmer shoulders his own risks... Then there is the Moshav Shitufi, in which the women have to work four or five hours a day for the community, but otherwise the family is a separate unit. No personal risk, no private enterprise but more private life. 1959Economist 16 May 640/1 The moshavim (the farming settlements where the families rent their own land but co-operate over marketing, tractor stations, seed buying, etc.). 1969P.
