History

The moshav was established in 1953 on land that had belonged to the Palestinian village of Kawfakha.[1] It was named after Akiva Etinger, a chief of the Settlement Department in the Jewish Agency. In the late 1970s Amir Peretz was a member of the moshav, bought a farm in the village and grew vegetables and flowers for export.
