untilled
Left without cultivation
Untilled describes land that has not been plowed or cultivated for growing crops.
The word suggests soil left in its natural state or allowed to lie fallow: untilled fields stretched to the horizon, The untilled earth was hard and weedy.
Figuratively, untilled can describe any undeveloped potential: untilled minds, untilled opportunities.
