Ground Lease Obligations
In connection with certain farms acquired through a leasehold interest, we assumed certain ground lease arrangements under which we are the lessee. These operating ground leases have lease expiration dates ranging from February 2025 through December 2041, and none of these leases contain any extension, renewal, or termination options. At lease commencement, the net present value of the minimum lease payments was determined by discounting the respective future minimum lease payments using a discount rate equivalent to our fully-collateralized borrowing rate ranging from 4.22% to 8.72%.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, we recorded the following as a result of these operating ground leases (dollars in thousands, except for footnotes):
December 31, 2021December 31, 2020
Operating lease right-of-use assets(1)
$671 $136

(2)Included within Other liabilities, net on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Future minimum lease payments due under the remaining non-cancelable terms of these leases as of December 31, 2021, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

(1)Certain annual lease payments are set at the beginning of each year to then-current market rates (as determined by the lessor). The amounts shown above represent estimated amounts based on the lease rates currently in place.
As a result of these ground leases, we recorded lease expense (included within Property operating expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income) of approximately $81,000 and $59,000 during the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
