Key legal question
Whether the claimant proved a genuine intention to self-cultivate the farm
Extracted holding
Yes. The claimant clearly expressed a serious intention to operate the farm himself, and his planned delay was tied to completing training and a practical placement, not to an indefinite postponement.
Extracted reasoning
Because intent is an internal state, proof requirements are not strict. Once the intent is declared and suitability is shown, the intent is generally accepted unless the opposing party proves circumstances casting doubt on its seriousness. The claimant provided a concrete, reasonable timetable.
