This is a page from the 1878 census of Jewish agricultural settlements in Kiev Guberniya (GAKO 1-36-6338). List for the Romanovka settlement near Berdychiv. I'm interested in line 197 for Itsko Bentsin Shulimovich LEVIY, my 3xggf. Can someone make out the entry in the 7th column, a description of the farm? (The first word seems to be khozyaystvo, "farm.") Thanks

8/26/2026 2:27 PM хозяйство ( 8 десятин, 287,5 сажень. Чтобы представить сколько делайте запрос на 1878 год, так как менялись понятия ) истреблено пожаром.
===========================
The farm (8 dessiatines or 287.5 sazhen. To get an idea of how much it was, make a request for 1878, as the concepts changed) was destroyed by fire.
