Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Obligations In connection with a lease amendment we executed on one of our Oregon farms in May 2017, we committed to provide up to $1.8 million of capital for anticipated improvements on the farm, including irrigation upgrades and the planting of new blueberry bushes, which improvements are expected to be completed by December 31, 2020. As stipulated in the lease amendment, we will begin earning additional rent on the cost of the improvements as the funds are disbursed by us at an initial annual rate of 6.5%, which rate is subject to annual escalations and market resets. As of March 31, 2019, we have expended or accrued approximately $1.0 million related to this project. In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of our two North Carolina farms in June 2017, we committed to provide up to $300,000 of capital to support additional plantings and infrastructure on the farm, which improvements are expected to be completed by June 30, 2020. As stipulated in the lease agreement, we will earn additional rent on the total cost of the improvements as disbursements are made by us at a rate commensurate with the annual yield on the farmland (as determined by each year’s minimum cash rent per the lease). As of March 31, 2019, we have expended or accrued approximately $166,000 related to this project. In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of a 361-acre farm in California in August 2017, we committed to provide up to $4.0 million of capital to fund the development of additional vineyard acreage on the farm, which development is expected to be completed by March 31, 2020. As stipulated in the lease agreement, we will earn additional rent on the total cost of the improvements as the funds are disbursed by us at an initial annual rate of 6.0%, which is subject to annual escalations. As of March 31, 2019, we have expended or accrued approximately $1.6 million related to this project. In connection with a lease amendment we executed on one of our Oregon farms in May 2018, we committed to provide up to approximately $250,000 of capital for certain irrigation improvements on the farm, which are expected to be completed by May 1, 2019. As a result of this project, the lease amendment provides for additional, fixed rental payments that are subject to annual escalations. As of March 31, 2019, we have expended or accrued approximately $18,000 related to this project. In connection with the lease we executed upon our acquisition of five farms totaling 5,630 acres in Collier and Hendry Counties, Florida, in July 2018, we committed to provide up to $2.0 million of capital for certain irrigation improvements on the farms throughout the term of the lease, which expires on June 30, 2025. While no specific plans for such improvements have been developed yet, if and when any capital is deployed by us, as stipulated in the lease agreement, we will earn additional rent on the total cost of the improvements as disbursements are made by us at a rate commensurate with the annual yield on the farmland (as determined by each year’s minimum cash rent per the lease). To date, we have not expended or accrued anything related to this project. Ground Lease Obligations In connection with two farms acquired on June 1, 2017, through a leasehold interest, we assumed two ground lease arrangements under which we are the lessee (with the State of Arizona as the lessor). These two operating ground leases expire in February 2022 and February 2025, and neither lease contains any extension, renewal, or termination options. Upon our adoption of ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, we recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset of approximately $218,000 and an operating lease liability of approximately $213,000 as a result of these ground leases. These values were determined by discounting the respective future minimum lease payments using a discount rate equivalent to treasury rates with similar terms plus a spread ranging from 2.47% to 2.53%. As of March 31, 2019, we had recorded the following as a result of these operating ground leases (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes):
Operating lease right-of-use assets(1) |  | $ | 208 |
Operating lease liabilities(2) |  | 167 |
Weighted-average remaining lease term (years) |  | 5.3 |
Weighted-average discount rate |  | 4.20 | %
(1) | Operating lease right-of-use assets are shown net of accrued lease payments of approximately $41,000 and are included within Other assets, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
(2) | Included within Other liabilities, net on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
As a result of these ground leases, during each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we recorded lease expense (included within Property operating expenses on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations) of approximately $12,000. Future lease payments due under the remaining non-cancelable terms of these leases as of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, are as follows (dollars in thousands):
|  | Future Lease Payments(1)
Period |  | March 31, 2019 |  | December 31, 2018
2019 |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 47 |

2023 |  | 30 |  |  | 30 |
Thereafter |  | 31 |  |  | 31 |

Present value of lease payments |  | $ | 167 |  |  | $ | 232 |
(1) | Annual lease payments are set at the beginning of each year to then-current market rates (as determined by the State of Arizona). The amounts shown above represent estimated amounts based on the lease rates currently in place.
Litigation In the ordinary course of business, we may be involved in legal proceedings from time to time. We are not currently subject to any material known or threatened litigation.
