The Gemora inquires: Must the movable property be piled on the real property in order for the kinyan agav (by making a kinyan on the land, he automatically acquires the movable property)to be effective?

Rav Yosef said: This can be resolved from the following Mishna: Rabbi Akiva said: The smallest piece of land is subject to the requirements of pe’ah (a corner of the field is left over for the poor) and bikkurim (the first ripe fruits of any of the seven species with which the Torah praises Eretz Yisroel, which had to be brought to the Beis Hamikdosh in Yerushalayim) and to write a pruzbul because of it (after shemitah all debts are cancelled unless the lender wrote a pruzbul; a document which transfers all of one’s personal loans to the Beis Din, and their debts are not cancelled after shemitah; it may only be written if the debt was secured by land) and movable properties can be acquired by means of it.
