is obligatory on grains and fruits by scholarly consensus, based on the Almighty's saying: "And give its due on the day of its harvest." It is a condition that they be measurable, storable, and reach a of five awsuq (300 sa's). The amount of obligatory Zakat varies according to the method of irrigation: for what is irrigated without cost (like rainwater and springs), it is one-tenth; and for what is irrigated with cost (like irrigation with machinery), it is half of one-tenth.
