Cultivability

/ˌkʌltɪvəˈbɪləti/ noun

Definition

The quality or state of being capable of being cultivated, developed, or improved.

Etymology

From 'cultivate' (from Latin 'cultivare', to till or nurture) plus -able plus -ity suffix. The chain of suffixes shows how English builds abstract nouns about potential.

Kelly Says

In 19th-century agricultural writing, 'cultivability' was used to classify lands—some soils had high cultivability, others none, reducing complex ecosystems to a single metric of human usefulness.
