A Wheat Field on Passover
Question
Hello Rabbi, and happy holiday,
Suppose a person owns a wheat field, and some of the wheat kernels fell to the ground, and during Passover rain fell on them and they became leavened. Does that person thereby violate the prohibitions of “it shall not be seen” and “it shall not be found”? a0
With blessings,

See Shulchan Arukh, Orach Chayim, section 467, especially laws 4–5 and the commentaries there.
