Reference for Demai 6:3

כֹּהֵן וְלֵוִי שֶׁקִּבְּלוּ שָׂדֶה מִיִּשְׂרָאֵל, כְּשֵׁם שֶׁחוֹלְקִין בַּחֻלִּין כָּךְ חוֹלְקִין בַּתְּרוּמָה. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר אוֹמֵר, אַף הַמַּעַשְׂרוֹת שֶׁלָּהֶן, שֶׁעַל מְנָת כֵּן בָּאוּ:

A priest and a Levite who received a field [as sharecroppers] from a Jew; just as they divide the <i>Chulin</i> [non-sacred produce, with the field's owner], so they divide the <i>Terumah</i>. Rabbi Eliezer says: Even the tithes belong to them [i.e. the priest and the Levite], for they have come [to work the field] on this condition.
