ὥστε καὶ ἐποιήσαντο οἱ Λακεδαιμόνιοι δόγμα, ἅτε τοῖς ἐν τῇ Εἴρᾳ μᾶλλον ἢ σφίσιν αὐτοῖς γεωργοῦντες, τὴν Μεσσηνίαν καὶ τῆς Λακωνικῆς τὴν προσεχῆ, ἕως ἂν πολεμῶσιν, ἐᾶν ἄσπορον.

The ἅτε-clause is circumstantial, explaining the Spartans' agricultural activity for those at Eira; ἐᾶν is an infinitival complement of δόγμα, with τὴν Μεσσηνίαν and τὴν προσεχῆ (γῆν) as its object and ἄσπορον as predicative accusative. The subject of ἐᾶν is understood οἱ Λακεδαιμόνιοι; ἕως ἂν πολεμῶσιν is a temporal clause.
