Ramat Meir is a moshav located in the central part of the occupied Palestinian territories, approximately four kilometers south of the settlement of Rosh Pina. The moshav was established in 1949 on land belonging to the depopulated village of Al-Na‘ani, in the Ramla district, by discharged soldiers. It was named after the American Mayer Rosov. Rosov had purchased the land surrounding the Palestinian village of Al-Na‘ani in the 1930s for his company, Rosov Plantations. After the 1948 war, it expanded onto part of the remaining lands of Al-Na‘ani.
The settlement collapsed in 1965 but was re-established in 1969 by a group of immigrants from France, originally from North Africa. As of 2021, the population of the settlement was approximately 755 settlers.
