אִיתָא
It is stated
שֶׁכָּל הַשָּׁנָה
that throughout the year,
בְּאָמְרוֹ בִּשְׁמוֹנֶה עֶשְׂרֵה
when asking in Shemoneh Esreh [that G‑d bless this year]
וְאֵת כָּל מִינֵי תְבוּאָתָהּ לְטוֹבָה
“and all the varieties of its produce for good,”
צָרִיךְ לְכַוֵּן לְחִטִּים לְמַצָּה וְאֶתְרֹג
we should have in mind the wheat to be used for matzah, and the esrog.
בְּמָקוֹם אֶחָד נִזְכָּר מִלְּבַד הַנִּזְכָּר לְעִיל גַּם יַיִן לְקִדּוּשׁ
One source adds the wine used for Kiddush.
וְאָז בְּמֵילָא תִּהְיֶה כָּל הַתְּבוּאָה לְטוֹבָה
Then, as a matter of course, “all of the varieties of its produce” will prosper.
