הַטּוֹמֵן אֶת הַלּוּף בַּשְּׁבִיעִית, רַבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר, לֹא יִפְחֹת מִסָּאתַיִם, עַד גֹּבַהּ שְׁלֹשָׁה טְפָחִים, וְטֶפַח עָפָר עַל גַּבָּיו. וַחֲכָמִים אוֹמְרִים, לֹא יִפְחֹת מֵאַרְבַּעַת קַבִּים, עַד גֹּבַהּ טֶפַח, וְטֶפַח עָפָר עַל גַּבָּיו. וְטוֹמְנוֹ בִמְקוֹם דְּרִיסַת אָדָם:

If one stores <i>Arum Palaestinum</i> in the ground during the Sabbatical year, Rabbi Meir says: He must store no less than two <i>Se'ah</i> [specific unit of volume], up to a height of three <i>Tefachim</i>, with one Tefach of earth on top of it. The Sages say: He must store no less than four <i>Kabim</i> [specific unit of volume], up to a height of one <i>Tefach</i>, with one <i>Tefach</i> of earth on top of it. One must store it in a place where people walk.
