gisement

Read a random definition: separate trial

A quick definition of gisement:

Gisement is an old-fashioned word that means the same thing as agistment. Agistment is 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. Sometimes, the owner of the land will charge a fee for this service. In the past, gisement was also used to describe a charge on land that was used to pay for the upkeep of dikes that kept the sea from flooding the land.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Gisement is an archaic term that refers to agistment, which is a type of bailment where a person allows animals to graze on their pasture for a fee. It can also refer to a charge levied upon the owner or occupier of land.

  • A farmer allows a neighbor's cows to graze on their land for a fee. This is an example of agistment.
  • A landowner is charged a gisement for the upkeep of dikes that prevent the encroachment of the sea.

These examples illustrate how gisement or agistment involves the use of land for grazing animals and the payment of a fee for that use. It is a way for landowners to earn income from their land and for livestock owners to provide food for their animals.
