Crop Damage Clause Samples

The Crop Damage clause defines the responsibilities and procedures related to damage caused to crops during the course of a project or activity. Typically, it outlines how compensation will be determined and paid if crops are harmed due to construction, land use, or other operations, and may specify the process for assessing the extent of damage.

Crop Damage. If, during the Lease Option Term, loss of crop cultivation by the Owner results from ingress and egress to and from the Property by the Lessee under the terms of this Lease, such ingress and egress being outside of what the parties agree to in developing, operating and maintaining the Wind Energy Conversion Systems and related infrastructure, Lessee shall pay the “Crop Loss Compensation” fee to Owner within sixty (60) days after the expiration of the Lease Year in which the crop loss occurred. Such Crop Loss Compensation shall only be made once and shall not be perpetual. For the sake of clarity, the other compensation contemplated in Article 3 of the Wind Energy Lease shall be considered adequate compensation for any permanent loss of crop cultivation as a result of the permitted use of the Property as listed in Section 1.2 of the Wind Energy Lease. Crop Loss Compensation resulting from the activities by Lessee shall be based on the sum of the land area in the Property cultivated by Owner during the three (3) years prior to the Effective Date and not cultivated as a direct result of activities by Lessee under the terms of this Lease. Damages for crop and pasture land loss will be calculated by the following formula: Current Market Price x Yield Per Acre x Acres Lost = Damages. Yield will be determined by the average of the previous three years’ yields for the Premises. If Lessor does not have yield records available, Lessor and Lessee shall use commonly used yield information available for the area.
