Can one water a field that needs irrigation on Chol Hamoed and in the Shmita year? On what does it depend? If there will be a financial loss, one can do actions that do not incur too much labor, or even if there is concern that one may end up having to do hard labor. However, not all agree with these rules. According to which tannaitic opinion is our Mishna? Watering is a sub-category of plowing or planting? Rava and Rav Yosef disagree on this issue. If it is a sub-category of their of those, how can the rabbis permit it to be done in the shmita year in a case of a financial loss if those actions are forbidden by Torah law?
