Has anyone ever asked for landowners, who rent their land out, to pay for tiling on their land?

We have had many landowners pay half the cost of tile installation over the years. Some wanted a written agreement for reduced rent or not raising it for a number of years. Depending on the the size of the project we would install and pay ourselves just to keep the rent the same. Most landowners know how to care for there land, in our area if you don't tile you will have a swamp. The ones that don't care will soon learn.
