production of livestock, including, but not limited to, the feeding, care, and management of livestock,
mortality management, the planting, raising, and harvesting of crops, and has a need to remove nutrient-
rich effluent from the waste utilization system in place upon all or a portion of Lessor's Land (the
"Effluent")by applying the same over nearby farm land; and
B. Lessee owns, or has transferable rights to, the farm land described in Exhibit B attached
hereto (the "Farm Land"), and wishes to have the Effluent applied over said Farm Land pursuant to the

value of the Effluent Applied.
4. APPLICATION OF EFFLUENT. Lessorshall coordinate with Lessee with respect to
