Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

The Moisture Farmers of Tatooine organization was formed by moisture farmers by 4 ABY. In that year, one moisture farmer, Ardon Crell, represented the others in paying the desert planet Tatooine's Hutt crime lord Jabba Desilijic Tiure for protection from the planet's Tusken Raider species.

In 4 ABY, during Crell's work representing the Moisture Farmers of Tatooine, he was in Jabba's Palace on Tatooine when several Alliance to Restore the Republic operatives arrived with the intent of freeing Jabba's prisoner Han Solo. The events that followed led to the Alliance operatives killing Jabba and destroying the Hutt's luxury sail barge Khetanna over the Great Pit of Carkoon while Crell was aboard.
