If a land owner retains the right to plant and cultivate crops on the land but leases the rest of the land to a tenant, what right has the owner exercised?

Right to transfer

Explanation:

The owner has opted to use some land but leases the rest to a tenant by exercising the right to transfer. The right to transfer is a contract which allows renting some part of the land to another party for a specific period of time. The contractual right and responsibility are transferred through delegation or assignment.
