MISHNAH: One who contracts with another for a field, did not want to weed, and told him, what do you care since I am paying you rent? One does not listen to him since he may tell him, tomorrow you leave it and I’ll have it overgrown with grasses. One who contracts with another for a field and it did not produce. If it is enough to make a pile, he has to work on it. Rebbi Jehudah said, what is the definition of a pile? But if it is enough for spreading.

HALAKHAH: “One who contracts with another for a field,” etc. “One who contracts with another for a field,” etc. How much is “enough to make a pile”? Rebbi Jacob bar Idi in the name of Rebbi Joshua ben Levi: that the winnowing shovel can stand upright in it. Rebbi Abbahu in the name of Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina: only that its handle be on top. Rebbi Joshua ben Levi said: in addition to his expenses. Rebbi Yose ben Ḥanina said: in addition to the expenses of both of them. Rebbi Abbahu said: “for spreading”, to recover the seed grain which was spread on it.
