As per law, In any case you and your family members, trustees must be farmers on record then you may buy otherwise No. 

Yes you may do that. But in order to form a trust a deed must be registered and land specifics have to be mentioned. 

Obtain prior permission of district collector to purchase agricultural land by trust 

2) better purchase it in your name 

3) 

Earlier in the State of Maharashtra, a non-agriculturist could not acquire agricultural land without the prior approval of the Collector. On 1 January 2016, an amendment was made to the existing law to allow a non-agriculturist to acquire agricultural land subject to certain conditions

4)  the following lands would be excluded from the purview of Section 63 of the MTAL:

Land situated within the limits of a Municipal Corporation; or

Land situated within the limits of a Municipal Council; or

Land situated within the jurisdiction of Special Planning Authority; or

Land situated within the jurisdiction of New Town Development Authority; or

Any land allocated for residential, commercial, industrial or any other non-agricultural use as proposed in the draft/final Regional plan or Town Planning Scheme prepared under the Maharashtra Regional and Town Planning Act, 1966.

In short, a non-agriculturist can now acquire agricultural land for non-agricultural purpose (residential/commercial/industrial), if such land falls under any of the five exceptions to Section 63 of the MTAL as mentioned above.

There is no embargo as such 

Forming a trust is a different subject to that of the intended purchase of agricultural land. 

The purchase of any property by the trust would be decided in the meeting of trust board as per trust bylaws. 

Yes you can perform a trust as per trust act.
