קמה שיש בה סאתים ושכחה אינו שכחה. דילפינן שכחת קמה משכחת עומר, מה עומר שיש בו סאתים אינו שכחה אף קמה שיש בה סאתים אינה שכחה ושכחת קמה ילפינן לה מקרא דכתיב (שם) ושכחת עומר בשדה, לרבות שכחת קמה:
טופח. מין קטנית דק מאד, וקורין לו בערבי גילבא״ן. ובקמה של שעורים איירי שנשתדפו ונעשו דקות כטופח, ואפ״ה רואים אותם כאילו הן גסים כשאר שעורים, ואם כשנחשוב אותן גסים כשאר שעורים יהיה בהן סאתים אע״פ שעכשיו שהם שדופות אין בהם סאתים, לא הוי שכחה. ואין לפרש דשל טופח ממש יחשבו כאילו הם כשעורים הגסים, אלא בשעורים שנשתדפו ונעשו כטופח, דהכי אמרינן בירושלמי רואים את השדופות כאילו הן מלאות:
ענוה של שעורים. ענוה בוי״ו כמו ענבה בבי״ת כלומר גרגיר שעורים:

פאה פרק ו׳ משנה ח׳
Bartenura
הקמה מצלת את העומר – a standing crop that was not forgotten that was at the side of Omer that had been forgotten, prevents/saves the Omer that it would be forgotten, as it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “When you reap [the harvest in your field] and overlook a sheaf in the field…” the Omer that is is around it that was harvested is forgotten, and not the Omer that is around it that is standing crop.
ואת הקמה – if he forgot a standing crop and the heads of its ears of corn are attached to another standing crop that was not forgotten, that standing crop that was not forgotten prevents/saves the forgotten standing crop that is attached to it, and it is not forgotten.
העומר אינו מציל – if the Omer was forgotten or the standing crop was forgotten at the side of the Omer that was not forgotten, the Omer that is not forgotten does not save either the forgotten Omer or the forgotten standing crop.
הקמה מצלת את העומר. קמה שלא שכחה שהיתה בצד עומר ששכחו, מצלת על העומר, דלא הוי שכחה דכתיב (שם) כי תקצור ושכחת עומר, עומר שסביבותיו קציר הוי שכחה, ולא עומר שסביבותיו קמה:
ואת הקמה. אם שכח קמה והיו ראשי שבלים שלה מחוברים לקמה אחרת שלא שכחה, זאת הקמה שלא שכחה מצלת על הקמה השכוחה המחוברת אליה, ולא הויא שכחה:
העומר אינו מציל. אם היה עומר שכוח או קמה שכוחה בצד עומר שאינו שכוח, אין העומר שאינו שכוח מציל לא על העומר ולא על הקמה השכוחים:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

What is the Mishnah?
The Mishnah is the first major written collection of Jewish oral traditions, forming the basis of the Talmud. It dates back to around 200 CE and consists of teachings and discussions of Jewish law by various rabbis.
Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

What if I miss a day?

קמה שיש בה סאתים ושכחה אינו שכחה – since we derived the forgotten standing crop from the forgotten Omer. Just as an Omer which contains two Se’ah is not forgotten, so also the standing crop which has two Se’ah is not forgotten, and the forgotten standing crop we derive it from the Biblical verse, as it is written (Deuteronomy 24:19): “[When you reap the harvest in your field] and overlook a sheaf in the field,” to include the forgotten standing crop.
טופח – a kind of very thin pulse, and we call it in Arabic “Gilba’an.” But in the standing barley grain, we are speaking of when they were emptied of grain/blasted and they became thin like an inferior kind of barley, and even so, we see them as if they are thick like the rest of the barley, and if when we consider them thick like other barley, there would be in them two Se’ah, even though that now they are blasted and don’t have two Se’ah, they are not forgotten. And we should not interpret that of the inferior barley explicitly that they should consider it as if they are like thick barley, but with barley that was blasted and became inferior, and this is what we say in the Jerusalem Talmud, we see the blasted [barley] as if they are full.
ענוה של שעורים – the word ענוה /fertility with [the letter] ו' (Vav), like [the word] ענבה /stalk of grapes with a ב' (Bet), that is to say, a grain/berry of barley.
