It's because INSTANCED DRAW with TESSELLATION SHADER is not supported.
Please add support for this in classic render pipeline.

Resolution Note (2019.3.X):
Thank you for submitting this case. Upon investigating we've determined that the reason for near patches of terrain not rendering is that instancing and tessellation is unfortunately not supported by Unity. It is supported by the new render pipeline (URP) however.
We are putting it under a feature in our backlog (rather than a bug), and will take this into consideration in the future. The request will be moved to our internal planning tool, and this case will be closed. This does not guarantee that the feature will be implemented, as objections may be raised once technical planning is started.
