Sde Nehemia ( _he. שדה נחמיה, lit. "Nehemia Field") is a small kibbutz in the Upper Galilee area of Israel. It falls under the jurisdiction of Upper Galilee Regional Council and in 2006 had a population of 429. The Jordan River originates in the kibbutz's grounds at the point where the Banias and Hasbani Rivers meet.

History

Sde Nehemia was founded in 1940 by immigrants from Austria and the Netherlands on land bought from the Arab village of al-Dawwara. Differential salaries were implemented in 2005, thus effectively ending the tradition of economic equality.

Economy

Located in the Hula Valley between the Golan Heights and Lebanon, Sde Nehemia and the surrounding area are Israel's most fertile, making agriculture a significant source of income. The kibbutz also has a plastics factory, "Huliot".
