Preferred label Arable Crop Land
Definition The term arable crop land describes a kind of crop land which is used for planting annual or multi- annual crops. It may underlay crop rotation cycles. The soil needs to be ploughing or elsewise prepared for sowing, normally with the help of some sort of machinery or manual tools. Arable crop land includes not only actively cropped land but also set aside and fallow land (according to EU Common Agriculture Policy), as it is part of crop cycles on arable land. Also the waterlogged cultivation such as rice fields is included here.
