The answer

If the agricultural produce consists of fruits, Zakat is not obligatory on the fruits themselves according to the majority of scholars. However, if a year passes on the proceeds from the crops, their value must be assessed and added to the price of what was sold from them, and to cash or other trade goods. Then Zakat is paid on the total sum. This applies if the company belongs to one person. But if it belongs to several people, each person pays Zakat on his share if a year has passed on it and it reaches the

nisab either alone or when combined with cash or other trade goods. The nisab for banknotes is the equivalent of eighty-five grams of gold, and the amount to be given is a quarter of a tenth (2.5%).
