The numerical, descriptive and estimated statement of the animals handed over, appearing in the lease, does not transfer ownership of them to the lessee; its sole purpose is to serve as a basis for the settlement to be made when the contract comes to an end.
All profits belong to the farmer during the term of his lease, if there is no agreement to the contrary.
In livestock given to the farmer, the manure is not in the personal profits of the lessees, but belongs to the tenant farm, to the operation of which it must be employed solely.
The loss, even if total and by fortuitous event, is in full for the farmer, if there is no agreement to the contrary.
At the end of the lease or when it is terminated, the lessee must leave animals of each species forming the same stock as that which he has received, in particular as regards the number, breed, age, weight and quality of the animals. If there is a surplus, it belongs to him. If there is a deficit, the settlement between the parties is made on the basis of the value…
If the entire herd perishes through no fault of the tenant farmer, the loss shall be for the lessor.
It may be stipulated that the tenant farmer shall relinquish to the lessor his share of the fleece at a price lower than the ordinary value; That the lessor shall have a larger share of the profit; That he shall have half of the milkings; But it cannot be stipulated that the tenant farmer shall be liable for all the loss. .
This herd ends with the sharecropping lease.
It is, moreover, subject to all the rules for single livestock.
When one or more cows are donated to house and feed them, the lessor retains ownership: he has only the benefit of the calves born from them.
