Bananas Harvested in the Eighth Year
Question
Do we need to observe the sanctity of the Shemitah year for bananas harvested now in the eighth year? Thank you very much
Answer
Shalom Rav
There is no need to observe the sanctity of the Shemitah year for them.
Since for vegetables, we follow the time of harvest, and the bananas were not planted during the Shemitah year.
