abstract
| - Timorim (, pl. from the Hebrew root rising, tall) is a village in central Israel organized as a moshav shitufi and functioning also as a communal settlement for its community of non-members. Located on the Israeli coastal plain around a kilometer south of the Malakhi Junction, near the town of Kiryat Malakhi, it falls under the jurisdiction of Be'er Tuvia Regional Council. In 2006 it had a population of 710. It was established in 1948 by a Gar'in of youth from South Africa, Romania and Egypt as a kibbutz on Shimron Hill in the Lower Galilee, in the area now covered by the communal settlement of Timrat. In 1953 it reorganized as a moshav shitufi, one of the first in the country. In 1954 the settlement moved to its current location due to a shortage of land at its original site. Timorim's income in 2005 derived mainly from industry (74%), with additional 15% from agriculture and 11% from outside work of Timorim members and other sources. Timorim has two industries: "Tomer Plastics" manufacturing plastic furniture for the institutional market (est. 1961-1975) and "Tomer 2000" manufacturing metal pipes (est. 1978). Agriculture includes cotton, citrus, olives, and walnuts. A dairy herd of 450 head is managed jointly with Kibbutz Hulda.
