Einer, der drei Bäume auf dem Grundstück eines Mitmenschen kauft, bringt und rezitiert. Rabbi Meir sagt, sogar zwei [Bäume]. Wer den Baum und seinen Boden gekauft hat, bringt und rezitiert. Rabbi Judah sagt, sogar Teilhaber und Mieter bringen und rezitieren.

Bartenura on Mishnah Bikkurim
מביא וקורא – as is undefined. If he purchased the land under them and outside of them, but less than three trees undefined, he did not purchase the land. But Rabbi Meir disputes this and says that even [if he purchased] two trees, he also purchased the land [underneath]. But the Halakha does not follow Rabbi Meir.

English Explanation of Mishnah Bikkurim
One who bought three trees in another’s field, he brings [bikkurim] and recites. Rabbi Meir says: even [if he bought] only two. In mishnah six we learned that if a person buys two trees, he is not considered to have bought the land on which the trees grow. He brings bikkurim but he doesn’t recite. We learn today the obvious inference: if he buys three trees the land is his and he must bring and recite. Rabbi Meir says that even one who buys two trees is considered to have bought the land and he brings and recites. The same opinion was found in mishnah six.

English Explanation of Mishnah Bikkurim
If he bought one tree with its land, he brings [bikkurim] and recites. The above section dealt with a person who bought the trees but did not explicitly buy the land. If he explicitly buys the land that the tree grows on he brings and recites, even if he only bought one tree.

Bartenura on Mishnah Bikkurim
אף בעלי אריסות וחכירות מביאין וקוראין – For Rabbi Yehuda holds that tenant who tills the owner’s ground for a certain share {percentage) in the produce and a tenant farmer who pays the landlord a certain rent in kind (whether the year is a good one or not, fiscally), there is purchase of the land as if he has a portion in it. But the Halakha does not follow Rabbi Yehuda.

English Explanation of Mishnah Bikkurim
Rabbi Judah says: even sharecroppers and leasers bring and recite. Rabbi Judah disagrees with the opinion found in mishnah two, that one who doesn’t own the land on which the produce grows does not brings the bikkurim. Rabbi Judah holds that a sharecropper’s and a leaser’s grasp on the land is sufficient enough to cause them to be liable to bring bikkurim and make the declaration as well.
