(a) If the defendant has a crop planted or growing on the premises and the court or jury finds for the plaintiff, they must also ascertain the rental value of the premises during the current year, and no writ of possession can be issued until the expiration of the year if the defendant executes a bond in double the amount of such rent payable to the plaintiff, with surety approved by the clerk, conditioned to pay the rent so assessed at the expiration of the year.
