What does Leviticus 25:16 mean?

If there are a lot of years left, you can ask for more money. If there are only a few years, ask for less. The price should match the number of harvests you’ll get from the land. Leviticus 25:16 - Modern Text Bible

(The value of the land was tied to its productivity, not just ownership. This kept things fair and prevented people from taking advantage of each other.)
