Tosefta Terumot
Rabbi Eliezer says, we make repayment from one kind on behalf of another kind, as long as we pay from the higher quality on behalf of the lower quality (Ter. 6:6). How is this done? [If] he ate barley and makes repayment from wheat, or dried figs and made repayment from dates, may a blessing come upon him. Rabbi Akiva says, we do not make repayment except for [produce of] one kind on behalf of [produce of] the same kind. [But] Rabbi Eliezer says, just as we make repayment from the new on behalf of the old, so too we make repayment from one kind on behalf of another kind.
