Shemitah Year Calendar. The shemitah year, the sabbatical year, is each seventh year, and the yovel, the jubilee. The agricultural laws apply only to the holy land and fruit grown there.

The shmita represents the end of a shared calendar cycle according to the bible and is a time when debts are forgiven, and the land is allowed to rest from the constant farming endured.
