Sde Moshe (Template:Lang-he, lit. Moshe Field) is a moshav in the region of Lakhish, about 3 km east of Kiryat Gat, in south-central Israel. It belongs to the Lakhish Regional Council.

Sde Moshe was founded in 1956 as part of a movement from the city to the village, on land of the abandoned Arab village Iraq al-Manshiyya. It is named after Baron Maurice de Hirsch, whose Hebrew name was Moshe, and who was one of the founders of the Jewish Colonization Association. It was originally named "Sde Yeshayahu."
