MISHNAH: One who contracts with another for a field, but it was eaten by locusts or scorched. If it was a countrywide calamity, he reduces his leasing fee; if it was not a countrywide calamity, he does not reduce his leasing fee. Rebbi Jehudah says, if he contracted for a sum of money in no case does he deduct from the leasing fee.

HALAKHAH: “One who contracts with another for a field,” etc. Rav Huna said, if the entire area in that direction was scorched. Simeon bar Abba in the name of Rebbi Joḥanan. But only if it was sown. [But if he did not sow], the other can tell him, if you had sown it would have produced a lot. Think of it, if there were other fields [which were not hit]? He may tell him, the Holy One, praise to Him, is forbearing with the evildoers. If there were other fields which were damaged? He may tell him, so far I was liable in the case; from now on I am no longer liable.
