In the wider sense it comprises all activities in relation to land including horticulture, forestry, breeding and rearing of livestock, dairying, butter and cheese-making, husbandry, etc. Whether the narrower or the wider sense of the term 'agriculture' should be adopted in a particular case depends not only upon the provisions of the various statutes in which the same occurs but also upon the facts and circumstances of each case, Maheshwari Seed Farm v.

Land
Land, in its restrained sense, means soil, but in its legal acceptation it is a generic term, comprehend-ing every species of ground, soil or earth, whatso-ever, as meadows, pastures, woods, moors, waters, marshes, furze and heath; it includes also houses, mills, castles, and other buildings; for with the conveyance of the land the structures upon it pass also. And besides an indefinite extent upwards, it extends downwards to the globe's centre, hence the maxim, Cujus est solum ejus est usque ad c'lum et ad inferos; or, more curtly expressed, Cujus est solum ejus est altum. See Co. Litt. 4 a.In an (English) Act of Parliament passed after 1850 'land' includes messuages, tenements and hereditaments, houses, and buildings of any tenure, Interpretation Act, 1889, s. 3. By the Law of Property Act,1925, s. 205(1)(ix.), 'land' for the purposes of the Act includes land of any tenure, and mines and minerals, whether or not held apart from the surface, buildings or parts of buildings (whether th...
