Arable Land

Arable land has soil and topography suitable for economical and practical cultivation of crops. These range from grains, grasses, and legumes to fruits and vegetables. Permanent pastures and rangelands are not considered arable. Forested land is also nonarable, although it can be farmed if the area is cleared and the soil and topography are suitable for cultivation.
