שָׁלשׁ גְּרָנוֹת לְמַעְשַׂר בְּהֵמָה, בִּפְרוֹס הַפֶּסַח, בִּפְרוֹס הָעֲצֶרֶת, בִּפְרוֹס הֶחָג, דִּבְרֵי רַבִּי עֲקִיבָא. בֶּן עַזַּאי אוֹמֵר, בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְתִשְׁעָה בַּאֲדָר, בְּאֶחָד בְּסִיוָן, בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְתִשְׁעָה בְאָב. רַבִּי אֱלִיעֶזֶר וְרַבִּי שִׁמְעוֹן אוֹמְרִים, בְּאֶחָד בְּנִיסָן, בְּאֶחָד בְּסִיוָן, בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְתִשְׁעָה בֶאֱלוּל. וְלָמָּה אָמְרוּ בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְתִשְׁעָה בֶאֱלוּל וְלֹא אָמְרוּ בְּאֶחָד בְּתִשְׁרֵי, מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהוּא יוֹם טוֹב, וְאִי אֶפְשָׁר לְעַשֵּׂר בְּיוֹם טוֹב, לְפִיכָךְ הִקְדִּימוּהוּ בְּעֶשְׂרִים וְתִשְׁעָה בֶאֱלוּל. רַבִּי מֵאִיר אוֹמֵר, בְּאֶחָד בֶּאֱלוּל רֹאשׁ הַשָּׁנָה לְמַעְשַׂר בְּהֵמָה. בֶּן עַזַּאי אוֹמֵר, הָאֱלוּלִיִּין מִתְעַשְּׂרִין בִּפְנֵי עַצְמָן:

There are three <i>granot</i> [calving season cut-off date, after which it is prohibited to sell or slaughter, before tithing them, animals born during that period]for animal tithes: before Pesach, before Shavuot and before Sukkot, [these are] the words of Rabbi Akiva. Ben Azzai says: on the twenty-ninth of Adar, on the first of Sivan and on the twenty-ninth of Av. Rabbi Elazar and Rabbi Shimon say: on the first of Nisan, on the first of Sivan and on the twenty-ninth of Elul. And why did they say the twenty-ninth of Elul and not the first of Tishrei? Because it is a holy day and it is impossible to tithe on a holy day. Therefore, they moved it up to the twenty-ninth of Elul. Rabbi Meir says: the first of Elul is the New Year for the animal tithe. Ben Azzai says: those born in Elul are tithed by themselves.

Tosefta Rosh Hashanah (Lieberman)

The first of Elul is the beginning of the year for cattle tithing; R. Elazar and R. Shimon say: On the first in Tishrei. [Regarding this] Shimon b. Azzai said: Because some say "first in Elul" while others say “on the first in Tishrei”, the animals born in Elul are tithes for themselves. [What is that supposed to mean]? [Answer:] Five of them were born on Ab and five on Elul, five on Elul and five on Tishrei [or] five in Elul and five in Tishri, so they are not added together; [if he is] five [born] in Tishrei and five in Elul, behold, these are added together.
