Sir,
My wife originally comes from an agricultural family of Kerala. She has a farmer certificate from Kerala. I am not an agriculturist.
We want to buy a 1 acre agricultural plot in maharashtra. (a) Is it legally allowed? (b) we have no children, so what will happen to land ownership after one of us expires? (c) can we get loan to purchase land?
Thanks.

of course you can buy agricultural land in your wife's name. before purchasing the land, kindly see the related law limiting the area of land. if either if you demise, then the property will go to your legal heirs.
