Produces vegetables around bottom of smallholding (6)
I believe the answer is:
begets
'produces' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to bodily activities as well as being verbs in their -s form.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'vegetables around bottom of smallholding' is the wordplay.
'vegetables' becomes 'beets' (beet is a kind of vegetable).
'around' indicates putting letters inside.
'bottom of' indicates one should take the final letters.
The last letter of 'smallholding' is 'g'.
'beets' going around 'g' is 'BEGETS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for begets that I've seen before include "Becomes the father of, as in the Bible" , "Fathers or gives rise to" .)
