Leasing Rice Fields

[all star rod]

Problem is SOME of the land owners want his $ 3,500 or 4,000 and not have to do a DANG thing....Funny he does not complain when you pay him cash money which I wonder how many of them actually claim it on their taxes... However, not the land owners fault if there are no birds but he should have it set-up right.....ie....I think it is BS having a 70 acre pond with 2 acres of water showing. We always pay our guy who we lease from in full before the season and we have never asked him for money back on a bad year. Also, when we have a hole in the levee we fix it. To sum it up, you have some bad land owners just like you have some bad people who want to lesae. My uncle has been leasing from the same guy for 14 years and I think it helps to develope a friendship.
