agistment

Read a random definition: Trust Indenture Act

A quick definition of agistment:

Agistment: When someone pays to let their animals graze on someone else's land. It's like renting a field for your cows or sheep to eat in. The person who owns the land charges a fee for each animal that comes to eat. This is also called gisement. Sometimes, people used to pay a charge on their land to keep the sea from coming in and flooding it.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Agistment is a type of agreement where a person allows animals to graze on their land for a fee. It can also refer to a charge levied on the owner or occupier of land.

Example 1: A farmer allows a neighbor's cows to graze on his pasture for a fee. This is an example of agistment.

Example 2: In the past, people would pay a tithe of agistment to the church for the right to graze their animals on church-owned land.

Example 3: In some areas, agistment of sea-banks was used to pay for the upkeep of dikes that prevented the sea from encroaching on the land.

These examples illustrate how agistment involves the use of land for grazing animals and the payment of a fee for that use. It can be a mutually beneficial arrangement for both parties involved.
