If an agreement is made fixing the time of the termination of the tenancy, whether in writing or not, the tenancy shall cease at the time agreed upon, without notice. In the case of farm tenants, except mere croppers, occupying and cultivating an acreage of forty acres or more, the tenancy shall continue beyond the agreed term for the following crop year and otherwise upon the same terms and conditions as the original lease unless written notice for termination is served upon either party or a successor of the party in the manner provided in section 562.7, whereupon the tenancy shall terminate March 1 following. However, the tenancy shall not continue because of absence of notice if there is default in the performance of the existing rental agreement.
