§171-65 Leases, leases with option to purchase, sales permitted; when. Land intended for disposition as farm lot for truck crops or for horticultural, pasture, or special livestock use, may be disposed of by lease, lease with option to purchase, or in fee simple. Such disposition may be by drawing of lot, without recourse to public auction, notwithstanding any other provision in this chapter to the contrary; provided that the right to any values in the land not attributable to these agricultural uses shall be reserved to the State. Dispositions under this section shall be made only to individuals who satisfy the requirements established by the board and then only if the individual, either oneself or whose spouse, or both, does not already own lands of comparable use in the State; provided that the ownership by the individual or the individual's spouse of lands of comparable use shall not be a disqualification in applying for a lease within an agricultural park.
