My dad moved back to the area where he has land that has been in a "family deal" lease for the past 15 years arranged by his sister who has 1/3 share, and who doesn't make many of the payments for water access, taxes, etc.
dad is looking at end of life planning, so has paid for official survey, lawyer to do an actual division of the property, have a written lease, etc-stuff that should have been done a long time ago.
The lessee runs cattle, plants wheat and haygrazer, and had cleared a Bermuda field of mesquite at the start of the lease but the Bermuda is looking overgrazed and not good, in general.
I will eventually inherit the land that is dad's section. For those of you who lease, if an owner offered to purchase seed for legumes to help with regenerating the Bermuda (for example) would that be insulting or welcomed?
I'm looking long game. I know Bermuda is a nitrogen dependent grass, and that land was all cotton before it went to cattle. Across the road grass is no taller than 2" due to sheep overgrazing. I don't want that to happen. Central Texas…
