Gifts to the Poor Chapter 3

אֵין מַנִּיחִין אֶת הַפֵּאָה מִשָּׂדֶה עַל חֲבֶרְתָּהּ. כֵּיצַד. הָיוּ לוֹ שְׁתֵּי שָׂדוֹת לֹא יִקְצֹר אֶת הָאַחַת כֻּלָּהּ וְיַנִּיחַ בַּשְּׁנִיָּה פֵּאָה הָרְאוּיָה לִשְׁתֵּיהֶן. שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא כג כב) "לֹא תְכַלֶּה פְּאַת שָׂדְךָ בְּקֻצְרֶךָ" שֶׁיַּנִּיחַ בְּכָל אַחַת וְאַחַת פֵּאָה הָרְאוּיָה לָהּ. וְאִם הִנִּיחַ מִשָּׂדֶה עַל חֲבֶרְתָּהּ אֵינָהּ פֵּאָה:

Pe'ah should not be left in one field for another field. What is implied? If [a person] owned two fields, he should not harvest one entirely and leave the amount of pe'ah appropriate for both in the second field. [This is derived from Leviticus 23:22:] "Do not completely remove [the grain in] the corners of your field." [Implied is] that one should leave in each field the pe'ah that is appropriate for it. If one left [pe'ah] from one field for another, it is not pe'ah.

הָיְתָה שָׂדֵהוּ זְרוּעָה כֻּלָּהּ מִין אֶחָד וְהָיָה נַחַל בְּתוֹךְ הַשָּׂדֶה אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵינוֹ מוֹשֵׁךְ. אוֹ אַמַּת הַמַּיִם שֶׁאֵינוֹ יָכוֹל לִקְצֹר מַה שֶּׁבִּשְׁנֵי צְדָדֶיהָ כְּאַחַת וְהוּא שֶׁתִּהְיֶה מוֹשֶׁכֶת וּקְבוּעָה. הֲרֵי זֶה כִּשְׁתֵּי שָׂדוֹת וְנוֹתֵן פֵּאָה מִצַּד זֶה לְעַצְמוֹ וּמִצַּד זֶה לְעַצְמוֹ:

Although one's entire field was sowed with one crop, if there was a stream - even if did not flow - or an irrigation ditch - provided water flowed through it and it was established - in the midst of the field that would prevent one from harvesting both sides at the same time, it is considered as two fields and one should give pe'ah on each side for the portion there.

וְכֵן אִם הָיָה מַפְסִיק דֶּרֶךְ הַיָּחִיד שֶׁהוּא רָחָב אַרְבַּע אַמּוֹת אוֹ דֶּרֶךְ הָרַבִּים הָרָחָב שֵׁשׁ עֶשְׂרֵה אַמָּה. אֲבָל שְׁבִיל הַיָּחִיד וְהוּא פָּחוֹת מֵאַרְבַּע אוֹ שְׁבִיל הָרַבִּים פָּחוֹת מִשֵּׁשׁ עֶשְׂרֵה אַמָּה אִם הָיָה קָבוּעַ בִּימוֹת הַחַמָּה וּבִימוֹת הַגְּשָׁמִים מַפְסִיק. וְאִם אֵינוֹ קָבוּעַ בִּימוֹת הַגְּשָׁמִים אֵינוֹ מַפְסִיק אֶלָּא הֲרֵי הוּא כְּשָׂדֶה אַחַת:

Similarly, a path belonging to a private individual which is four cubits wide or a public thoroughfare which is sixteen cubits wide separates [between one field and another]. [Different rules apply regarding] a private path that is less than four cubits wide or a public path that is less than sixteen cubits wide. If it is permanent, i.e., it is maintained in the summer and in the rainy season, it is considered as a separation. If it is not permanent in the rainy season, it is not considered as a separation and [the entire area] is considered as one field.

הָיָה מַפְסִיק בָּהּ אֶרֶץ בּוּרָה שֶׁאֵינָה זְרוּעָה וְלֹא חֲרוּשָׁה. אוֹ אֶרֶץ נִירָה וְהִיא שֶׁנֶּחֶרְשָׁה וְלֹא נִזְרְעָה. אוֹ שֶׁהִפְסִיק בָּהּ זֶרַע אַחֵר. כְּגוֹן שֶׁהָיָה חִטִּים מִכָּאן וְחִטִּים מִכָּאן וּשְׂעוֹרִים בָּאֶמְצַע. אוֹ שֶׁקָּצַר בְּאֶמְצָעָהּ אֲפִלּוּ קֹדֶם שֶׁתָּבִיא שְׁלִישׁ וְחָרַשׁ מָקוֹם שֶׁקָּצַר. הֲרֵי זוֹ נִפְסֶקֶת לִשְׁתֵּי שָׂדוֹת. וְהוּא שֶׁיִּהְיֶה רֹחַב כָּל אֶחָד מֵאֵלּוּ כִּשְׁלֹשָׁה תְּלָמִים שֶׁל פָּתִיח וְהוּא פָּחוֹת מִבֵּית רֹבַע. בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים בְּשָׂדֶה קְטַנָּה שֶׁהִיא חֲמִשִּׁים אַמָּה שֶׁל שְׁתֵּי אַמּוֹת אוֹ פָּחוֹת. אֲבָל אִם הָיְתָה יְתֵרָה עַל זוֹ אֵין הַבּוּר אוֹ הַנִּיר מַפְסִיקָהּ לִשְׁתַּיִם אֶלָּא אִם כֵּן הָיְתָה בּוֹ רֹחַב בֵּית רֹבַע. אֲבָל זֶרַע אַחֵר כָּל שֶׁהוּא מַפְסִיק בָּהּ:

There are other factors which constitute a separation into two fields: a) land that was uncultivated, that was neither sown, nor plowed; b) land left fallow, that was plowed, but not sown; c) crops were interrupted with another crop, e.g., there was wheat on either side and barley in the middle; d) one harvested in the middle of his field before the grain reached a third of its maturity and plowed the portion which he harvested. [The above applies] provided the width of each of the above is three rows of plowing. [This is] less than the area necessary to sow a quarter [of a kav]. When does the above apply? With regard to a small field that is 50 cubits by two cubits or less. If it is larger than this uncultivated or fallow land does not cause it to be divided in two unless it was as wide as the area necessary to sow a quarter of a kav. [In this instance,] even the smallest amount of another crop creates a separation.

אֲכָלָהּ גּוֹבַאי אוֹ קִרְסְמוּהָ נְמָלִים בְּאֶמְצָעָהּ אִם חָרַשׁ מָקוֹם שֶׁאָכְלוּ הֲרֵי זֶה מַפְסִיק:

If locusts consumed [a field] in its midst or ants destroyed it, should one plow the portion that was consumed, it is considered to be a separation.

הַזּוֹרֵעַ בָּהָר שֶׁאֵינוֹ כֻּלּוֹ שָׁוֶה אֶלָּא יֵשׁ בּוֹ תִּלִּים גְּבוֹהִים וּמְקוֹמוֹת מְקוֹמוֹת עֲמֻקּוֹת אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵינוֹ יָכוֹל לַחֲרשׁ אוֹתוֹ כֻּלּוֹ וּלְזָרְעוֹ כְּאַחַת אֶלָּא נֶחְרָשׁ הַמָּקוֹם הַגָּבוֹהַּ בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ וְהַנָּמוּךְ בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ הֲרֵי זֶה כְּשָׂדֶה אַחַת וּמַנִּיחַ פֵּאָה אַחַת בְּסוֹף הָהָר עַל כָּל הָהָר:

[The following law applies when one] sows [crops] on a mountain [slope] that is not level, but instead has knolls and hollows. Even though he cannot plow it all at once and sow it all at once, but instead must plow the knolls by themselves and the hollows by themselves, it is considered as a single field. He should leave one portion of pe'ah at the end of the mountain for the entire mountain.

מַדְרֵגוֹת שֶׁהֵן גְּבוֹהוֹת עֲשָׂרָה טְפָחִים נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה מִכָּל אַחַת וְאַחַת. וְאִם הָיוּ רָאשֵׁי שׁוּרוֹת מְעֹרָבִים נוֹתֵן מֵאַחַת עַל הַכּל. הָיוּ פָּחוֹת מֵעֲשָׂרָה אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁאֵין רָאשֵׁי הַשּׁוּרוֹת מְעֹרָבִין נוֹתֵן מֵאַחַת עַל הַכּל. הָיָה סֶלַע עַל פְּנֵי כָּל הַשָּׂדֶה. אִם עוֹקֵר הוּא אֶת הַמַּחְרֵשָׁה מִצַּד זֶה וְנוֹתְנָהּ מִצַּד זֶה מַפְסִיק. וְאִם לָאו אֵינוֹ מַפְסִיק:

[The following laws apply when one sows crops on] terraced land. [When each terrace] is ten handbreadths higher than the other, one should leave pe'ah [separately] for each terrace. If the heads of the rows are joined together, he should leave one portion of pe'ah for the entire area. If they were less than ten handbreadths higher, he should leave one portion of pe'ah even if the heads of the rows are not joined together. [The following rules apply] if there was a rock covering the surface of the entire field. If he must lift up the plow from one side and place it on the other side, it is considered an interruption. If not, it is not considered an interruption.

הַזּוֹרֵעַ שָׂדֶה שֶׁיֵּשׁ בָּהּ אִילָנוֹת אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהִיא מַלְבְּנוֹת מַלְבְּנוֹת בֵּין הָאִילָנוֹת וְאֵין כָּל הַזֶּרַע מְעֹרָב נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה אַחַת לְכָל הַשָּׂדֶה. שֶׁדָּבָר יָדוּעַ שֶׁשָּׂדֶה אַחַת הִיא וּמִפְּנֵי מְקוֹם הָאִילָנוֹת נֶחְלַק הַזֶּרַע:

When a person sows a field that has trees - even though he sows it in squares between the trees and thus the entire crop does not come together as one - he should give one portion of pe'ah for the entire field. For it is known that it is one field; it is only the place of the trees that causes the crop to be divided.

בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים בְּשֶׁהָיוּ הָאִילָנוֹת כָּל עֲשָׂרָה בְּתוֹךְ בֵּית סְאָה. אֲבָל אִם הָיוּ כָּל עֲשָׂרָה אִילָנוֹת בְּיוֹתֵר מִבֵּית סְאָה הֲרֵי זֶה נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה מִכָּל מַלְבֵּן וּמַלְבֵּן. שֶׁהֲרֵי הָאִילָנוֹת מְרֻחָקִים הַרְבֵּה וְלֹא מִפְּנֵי הָאִילָנוֹת זָרַע מַלְבְּנוֹת מַלְבְּנוֹת:

When does the above apply? When all ten trees were located in an area in which a se'ah [of grain can be sowed]. If, however, all ten trees were located in an area larger than that in which a se'ah [of grain can be sowed], he should leave pe'ah from every square separately. For the trees are far apart and they did not cause him to sow the field in squares.

וְכֵן מַלְבְּנוֹת הַבְּצָלִים שֶׁבֵּין הַיָּרָק נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה אַחַת לְכָל הַבְּצָלִים. וְאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהַיָּרָק מַבְדִּיל בֵּינֵיהֶן וּמְשִׂימָם מַלְבְּנוֹת מַלְבְּנוֹת:

Similarly, if squares of onions [grow] between vegetables, one should leave a single portion of pe'ah for all the onions even though the vegetables grow between them and cause them to appear as separate squares.

שָׂדֶה שֶׁכֻּלָּה זְרוּעָה מִין אֶחָד וְכֵיוָן שֶׁהִתְחִילוּ בָּהּ מְקוֹמוֹת לִיבַשׁ עָקַר אוֹ תָּלַשׁ מַה שֶּׁיָּבַשׁ מִכָּאן וּמִכָּאן עַד שֶׁנִּשְׁאַר הַלַּח מְפֹרָד מַלְבְּנוֹת מַלְבְּנוֹת מְרֻחָקוֹת זוֹ מִזּוֹ. אִם הָיָה דֶּרֶךְ בְּנֵי אָדָם שָׁם לִזְרֹעַ מֵאוֹתוֹ הַמִּין עֲרוּגוֹת עֲרוּגוֹת כְּגוֹן שֶׁבֶת אוֹ חַרְדָּל הֲרֵי זֶה מַנִּיחַ פֵּאָה מִכָּל מַלְבֵּן וּמַלְבֵּן. שֶׁהָרוֹאֶה אוֹמֵר עֲרוּגוֹת עֲרוּגוֹת נִזְרְעוּ. וְאִם הָיָה מִין אֶחָד שֶּׁזּוֹרְעִין אוֹתוֹ שָׂדוֹת כְּגוֹן תְּבוּאָה וְקִטְנִיּוֹת נוֹתֵן אַחַת לַכּל:

[The following laws apply when a person] sowed an entire field with one crop, but when certain places in the field began to dry out, he uprooted or pulled out the crops that had dried out on either side until the fresh crops appeared as separate blocks. If it was customary for people to sow that crop in individual rows, e.g., dill or mustard seed, he should leave pe'ah for each individual square, for an observer would say: "It was planted in separate rows." If it was a species that was usually sown throughout an entire field, e.g., grain or legumes, he should leave one portion of pe'ah for the entire [field].

בַּמֶּה דְּבָרִים אֲמוּרִים כְּשֶׁהָיָה יָבֵשׁ מִכָּאן וְיָבֵשׁ מִכָּאן וְלַח בָּאֶמְצַע. אֲבָל לַח מִכָּאן וּמִכָּאן וְיָבֵשׁ בָּאֶמְצַע מַנִּיחַ מִן הַיָּבֵשׁ בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ וּמִן הַלַּח בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ:

When does the above apply? When there were dried out portions on either side and the fresh portion in the center. If, however, the fresh portions are on either side and the dried out portion is in the center, he should leave pe'ah separately for the dried out portion and the fresh portions.

שָׂדֶה שֶׁזְּרָעָהּ בְּצָלִים אוֹ פּוֹלִים אוֹ אֲפוּנִים וְכַיּוֹצֵא בָּהֶן וְהָיָה בְּדַעְתּוֹ לִמְכֹּר מִקְצָתָן לַחִין בַּשּׁוּק וּמַנִּיחַ מִקְצָת הַשָּׂדֶה יָבֵשׁ וְיַעֲשֶׂה מִמֶּנּוּ גֹּרֶן. חַיָּב לְהַנִּיחַ פֵּאָה לְזֶה שֶׁמּוֹכֵר לַח בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ וְלָזֶה שֶׁקּוֹצֵר אוֹתוֹ יָבֵשׁ בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ:

[The following law applies when a person] sowed a field with onions, beans, peas, or the like. If he had the intent to sell some of the fresh produce in the marketplace and leave part of the field to dry out and to be put aside in storage, he is obligated to leave pe'ah separately for both the portion he sells and the portion he harvests for storage. For [produce sold in] the market and produce set aside in storage are considered as two separate types.

הַזּוֹרֵעַ אֶת שָׂדֵהוּ מִין אֶחָד אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא עוֹשֵׂהוּ שְׁתֵּי גֳּרָנוֹת מַנִּיחַ פֵּאָה אַחַת. זְרָעָהּ שְׁנֵי מִינִים אַף עַל פִּי שֶׁהוּא עוֹשֶׂה אוֹתָהּ גֹּרֶן אַחַת נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה לְמִין זֶה בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ וּפֵאָה לְמִין זֶה בִּפְנֵי עַצְמוֹ:

When a person sows his field with one species, he should leave one portion of pe'ah even though he collects the crops in two grain heaps. If he sows two species, even though he makes only one grain heap, he should leave pe'ah for each species separately.

זָרַע שְׁנֵי זְרָעִים מִמִּין אֶחָד כְּגוֹן שֶׁזְּרָעָהּ שְׁנֵי מִינֵי חִטִּים אוֹ שְׁנֵי מִינֵי שְׂעוֹרִים. אִם עֲשָׂאָן גֹּרֶן אַחַת נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה אַחַת. שְׁתֵּי גֳּרָנוֹת נוֹתֵן שְׁתֵּי פֵּאוֹת. וְדָבָר זֶה הֲלָכָה לְמשֶׁה מִסִּינַי:

[The following law applies when a person] sows two types of the same species, e.g., he sows two types of wheat or two types of barley. If he stores them in one grain heap, he should leave one portion of pe'ah. If he stores them in two grain heaps, he should leave separate portions of pe'ah. This is a halachah communicated by Moses from Sinai.

הָאַחִין שֶׁחָלְקוּ נוֹתְנִין שְׁתֵּי פֵּאוֹת. חָזְרוּ וְנִשְׁתַּתְּפוּ נוֹתְנִין פֵּאָה אַחַת. הַשֻּׁתָּפִין שֶׁקָּצְרוּ חֲצִי הַשָּׂדֶה וְאַחַר כָּךְ חָלְקוּ. זֶה שֶׁלָּקַח הַקָּצִיר אֵינוֹ מַפְרִישׁ כְּלוּם. וְזֶה שֶׁלָּקַח הַקָּמָה מַפְרִישׁ עַל הַחֵצִי שֶׁלָּקַח בִּלְבַד. חָזְרוּ וְנִשְׁתַּתְּפוּ וְקָצְרוּ הַחֵצִי הָאַחֵר בְּשֻׁתָּפוּת. כָּל אֶחָד מֵהֶן מַפְרִישׁ מֵחֶלְקוֹ שֶׁבַּקָּמָה עַל חֵלֶק חֲבֵרוֹ שֶׁבַּקָּמָה אֲבָל לֹא עַל הַחֵצִי שֶׁנִּקְצַר:

When brothers have divided [the estate they inherited], they should leave pe'ah separately. If later they joined together in partnership, they should leave only one portion of pe'ah. When partners who have harvested half of a field break up the partnership, [one taking the grain that was harvested already and one taking the standing grain,] the one who took the grain that was harvested does not separate anything and the one who took the standing grain is required to separate only for the half which he took. If, afterwards, they reestablished their partnership and harvested the second half as partners, either one may separate [pe'ah] for his colleague's portion of the standing grain from his own portion of the standing grain, but not for the portion that was already harvested.

שָׂדֶה שֶׁהִגִּיעַ חֶצְיָהּ עַד שְׁלִישׁ וְחֶצְיָהּ לֹא הִגִּיעַ. וְהִתְחִיל וְקָצַר בְּחֵצִי שֶׁהִגִּיעַ חֶצְיוֹ וְאַחַר כָּךְ הֵבִיאָה כֻּלָּהּ שְׁלִישׁ וְאַחַר כָּךְ גָּמַר הַחֵצִי הָרִאשׁוֹן שֶׁהִגִּיעַ בַּתְּחִלָּה. מַפְרִישׁ מִן הָרִאשׁוֹן עַל הָאֶמְצָעִיִּים וּמִן הָאֶמְצָעִיִּים עַל הָרִאשׁוֹן וְעַל הָאַחֲרוֹן:

[There are situations in which pe'ah may be given from different parts of a field for other parts of the same field that were harvested afterwards. For example, the grain of] half of a field ripened to a third of its maturity and half did not ripen to that extent. [The owner] harvested half of the portion that reached maturity. Afterwards, the remainder of the field ripened to one third and then he completed the harvest of the first half that reached [a third of its maturity] previously. He may separate [pe'ah] from [the crops] harvested first for the middle portion and from the middle portion on the first portion and on the last portion.

הַמּוֹכֵר מְקוֹמוֹת מְקוֹמוֹת מִשָּׂדֵהוּ לַאֲנָשִׁים הַרְבֵּה. אִם מָכַר כָּל הַשָּׂדֶה כָּל אֶחָד וְאֶחָד נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה אַחַת מֵחֶלְקוֹ שֶׁלָּקַח. וְאִם הִתְחִיל בַּעַל הַשָּׂדֶה לִקְצֹר וּמָכַר מִקְצָת וְשִׁיֵּר מִקְצָת. בַּעַל הַשָּׂדֶה נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה הָרְאוּיָה לַכּל. שֶׁכֵּיוָן שֶׁהִתְחִיל לִקְצֹר נִתְחַיֵּב בַּכּל. וְאִם מָכַר תְּחִלָּה מַפְרִישׁ הַלּוֹקֵחַ עַל מַה שֶּׁלָּקַח וּבַעַל הַשָּׂדֶה עַל מַה שֶּׁשִּׁיֵּר:

[The following laws apply when a person] sells separate portions in his field to different people. If he sold his entire field, each one of the purchasers should leave pe'ah for the portion that he purchased. If the owner of the field had begun to harvest his field and sold a portion and retained a portion, the owner of the field should leave [the amount of] pe'ah appropriate for the entire field. [The rationale is that] since he began harvesting [the field] he became obligated to [separate pe'ah for] the entire [field]. If he sold [the portions of the field] before [he began harvesting], the purchaser should separate [pe'ah] for the portion he purchased and the owner for the remainder.

שְׂדֵה אִילָן אֵין מַפְסִיק בָּהּ אֶלָּא גָּדֵר גָּבוֹהַּ הַמַּבְדִּיל בֵּין הָאִילָנוֹת. אֲבָל אִם הָיָה הַגָּדֵר מַבְדִּיל מִלְּמַטָּה וְהַבַּדִּים וְהַפְּאֵרוֹת מְעֹרָבִין מִלְּמַעְלָה וְנוֹגְעִין בַּגָּדֵר עַל גַּבּוֹ הֲרֵי זֶה כְּשָׂדֶה אַחַת וְנוֹתֵן פֵּאָה לַכּל:

Only a high fence that separates between [the branches of] the trees divides an orchard with regard [to the laws of pe'ah]. If, however, the fence separates on a lower level, but the branches and the trellises are intermingled above and touch the top of the fence, the orchard is considered a single entity and [only] one portion of pe'ah should be given.

שְׁנַיִם שֶׁלָּקְחוּ אִילָן אֶחָד נוֹתְנִין מִמֶּנּוּ פֵּאָה אַחַת. לָקַח זֶה צְפוֹנוֹ וְזֶה דְּרוֹמוֹ זֶה נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה לְעַצְמוֹ וְזֶה נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה לְעַצְמוֹ:

When two people purchased one tree [in partnership], they should leave one portion of pe'ah from it. If one purchased the northern side [of a tree] and the other purchased [the southern side], each one should leave pe'ah individually.

הֶחָרוּבִין כָּל שֶׁאָדָם עוֹמֵד בְּצַד חָרוּב זֶה וַחֲבֵרוֹ עוֹמֵד בְּצַד חָרוּב זֶה וְרוֹאִין זֶה אֶת זֶה הֲרֵי הֵן כֻּלָּן שָׂדֶה אַחַת וּפֵאָה אַחַת לְכֻלָּן. הָיוּ שְׁנֵי הַצְּדָדִין רוֹאִין אֶת הָאֶמְצָעִיִּים וְאֵין הַצְּדָדִים רוֹאִין זֶה אֶת זֶה מַפְרִישׁ מִצַּד אֶחָד מִן הָרִאשׁוֹנִים עַל הָאֶמְצָעִיִּים וּמִן הָאֶמְצָעִיִּים עַל הָרִאשׁוֹנִים. אֲבָל לֹא יַפְרִישׁ מִצַּד זֶה עַל הַצַּד הָאַחֵר:

[The following laws apply to] carob trees: Whenever one person stands next to one carob tree and his colleague stands next to another carob tree and they can see each other, [the trees] are considered as in one field and one portion of pe'ah should be left for them. [Different rules apply] if, however, those on the extremes can see those in the center, but those on the extremes cannot see each other, he may separate from those on the extremes for those on the center and from those in the center for those on the extremes. He may not, however, separate from those on one extreme for those on the other extreme.

הַזֵּיתִים כָּל מַה שֶּׁיֵּשׁ מֵהֶן בְּרוּחַ אַחַת מֵרוּחוֹת הָעִיר כְּגוֹן זֵיתִים שֶׁיֵּשׁ בְּמַעֲרַב הָעִיר כֻּלָּן אוֹ בְּמִזְרָחָהּ הֲרֵי הֵן כְּשָׂדֶה אַחַת וּפֵאָה אַחַת לְכֻלָּן:

[The following laws apply to] olive trees: All the trees on one of the sides of a city, e.g., all of the olive trees on the entire western side or the entire eastern side of a city are considered as being from one field and one portion of pe'ah should be left for all of them.

הַבּוֹצֵר אֶת מִקְצָת כַּרְמוֹ מִכָּאן וּמִכָּאן כְּדֵי לְהָקֵל מֵעַל הַגֶּפֶן עַד שֶׁיִּמְצְאוּ שְׁאָר הָאֶשְׁכּוֹלוֹת רֶוַח וַיּוֹסִיפוּ הוּא הַנִּקְרָא מֵדֵּל. וּכְבָר בֵּאַרְנוּ שֶׁהַבּוֹצֵר מֵרוּחַ אַחַת אֵינוֹ מֵדֵּל וּלְפִיכָךְ נוֹתֵן מִן הַנִּשְׁאָר פֵּאָה הָרְאוּיָה לַכּל. וְאַף עַל פִּי שֶׁבָּצַר לַשּׁוּק. אֲבָל אִם הֵדֵּל לִמְכֹּר בַּשּׁוּק אֵינוֹ נוֹתֵן פֵּאָה לְזֶה שֶׁהֵדֵּל. הֵדֵּל לְהָבִיא בְּבֵיתוֹ נוֹתֵן מִן הַנִּשְׁאָר שֶׁהִנִּיחַ לִדְרֹךְ פֵּאָה אַחַת הָרְאוּיָה לַכּל:

A person who harvests a portion of his vineyard from either side in order to lessen [the demand] on the vines so that the other clusters will have more room and increase in size is called one who reduces. We already explained that a person who harvests from one side is not considered as one who reduces. Therefore he must leave the amount of pe'ah appropriate for the entire field even though he harvested [with the intent of selling the grapes in] the marketplace. If, however, he reduces [the produce on the vines with the intent of] selling [the produce] in the marketplace, he should not leave pe'ah for the produce that he took off. [Nevertheless,] if he reduces [the produce on the vines with the intent of] taking it home, he should leave the amount of pe'ah appropriate for the entire field from [the grapes] he left to be trodden for the vat.
