Halakhah for Kiddushin 77:8

כדשמואל דאמר שמואל (ויקרא יט, יט) את חקתי תשמורו חוקים שחקקתי לך כבר (ויקרא יט, יט) בהמתך לא תרביע כלאים שדך לא תזרע

Perhaps it [the Mosaic halachah] was thus given: Doubtful ['orlah] is permitted [in the Diaspora], certain ['orlah] is forbidden. R'Assi said in R'Johanan's name: One is flagellated for [violating the prohibition of] kil'ayim [in the Diaspora] by Biblical law. But we learnt,<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Cur. ed. read: R. Eleazar b. R. Jose said to him, But we learnt. This is obviously incorrect, since R. Eleazar b. R. Jose was a Tanna of an earlier generation, and so the Wilna Gaon deletes it. But Asheri reads: R. Eleazar said to R. Assi, which will refer to R. Eleazar b. Pedath, his contemporary.');"><sup>16</sup></span>

Sefer HaChinukh

To not sow seeds of forbidden mixtures and not graft in any place in the Land: To not sow two species of seed, such as wheat and barley or fava beans and peas, together - only in the Land of Israel - as it is stated (Leviticus 19:19), "your field shall you not sow [with] a forbidden mixture." And the explanation comes about it (Kiddushin 39a) that the verse is speaking about a field that we have in the Land.
