The bill amends Arkansas Code 18-16-105, which pertains to the termination of oral leases for farmlands. It allows owners of farmlands to notify renters or lessees of their decision not to renew an oral rental or lease agreement for the following calendar year. The key change in the bill is the method of delivering this notice; it removes the requirement for the notice to be sent via certified mail and instead permits any method of service allowed under Rule 4 of the Arkansas Rules of Civil Procedure.

This amendment aims to provide greater flexibility for landlords in communicating lease terminations, potentially streamlining the process and making it more accessible. By broadening the acceptable methods of service, the bill seeks to ensure that both parties can effectively manage their lease agreements without the constraints of a specific delivery method.
