Fragmentary offer to lease the olive crop of an olive grove near the village of Karanis, addressed to a landowner acting through a manager and living in the metropolis.

In English machine translation

Although catalogued as a sale of an olive crop, the wording is that of a lease offer ("I wish to lease"), a common form for buying a season's harvest. The epichyma was a customary surcharge added to each measure of oil.
