Answer 1

Items that are grown, mined, or naturally produced (like milk, vegetables, metals, flowers, etc.) fall under land. As per the table in my report, wheat (for flour), eggs (from poultry), milk (for butter), pulp (used to make paper, from trees), gold, silver, gemstones (all mined natural resources), leather (from animals), rubber (natural rubber from trees) can be labeled as ‘land’ and are essential for several economic activities and fulfilling humans basic and primary needs.
