Yes. If such a rule in the articles in the company bylaw, then the company can purchase the land.

Dealing with agriculture products, as per Moa & AoA of the company do not cover to cultivate and produce the crop therefore, company can not buy land in the name of company.
It is better to consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for appreciation of facts/ documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.
