Zakat is obligatory on nurseries if they are cultivated and then sold. This applies to the proceeds from their sale if it reaches the nisab and a hawl (full lunar year) passes over it. The amount of zakat is a quarter of one-tenth (2.5%). However, if the nurseries are bought and then sold, they are considered trade goods and are appraised when a hawl passes over the original capital with which they were purchased. Zakat is then paid from their value at a rate of a quarter of one-tenth (2.5%) if it reaches the nisab.
