How far do my land rights reach?
If a farmer tills the soil he is actively engaged with the top foot of land.
What if minerals or other resources are discovered under the field? Does the farmer own them by default or does he own the access rights via the surface of his field? What if someone attempted to tunnel under his land from a neighboring property in order to build a road or railway?
Currently land rights in Malaysia extend to the centre of the Earth, in Japan they reach 50 meters from the property.
