I think land is a passive factor of production because you would have to develop that land in order for you to produce. So it does not actively participate in your business unless you make something of it. An exampl is when you but a lot. If you do not develop it into a house, commercial space or a rental space then it will sit passively or idle and your investement will just be frozen and not be productive.
