ABSTRACT
While no sale of land is admissible, sale of standing crops is known but seldom practised. If a man relinquishes his holding the trees thereon revert, together with the holding, to the community. Trees planted in the immediate vicinity of the house are considered to be part of the homestead and therefore cannot be sold separately. The beast to be sold must be produced when the contract of sale is concluded. The procedure of showing a similar beast to that which it is proposed to sell is admissible, but is very seldom employed. Material which has been used for house building can only be sold if the occupier has built the house without help of the village community. The rules refer to houses which have been erected not with the help of the inhabitants of the village, but at the expense of the owner.
