Article 2097

Where the rent consists of a sum of money or of a quantity of agricultural products determined beforehand, the farmer-tenant may require a remission of part of his debt or time for the payment of such debt where, in consequence of an invasion of locust, an exceptional drought or other extraordinary accidents or disasters of the same nature, the yield of a given year has diminished by at least one half in comparison with the normal yield.

Any stipulation or custom to the contrary shall be of no effect.
