client received 1099 from company that is paying for surface rights on solar panel plant land client owns mineral rights for land.  the 1099 classes it as "other income"  Is this correct or is it royalties?

Also the client receives set amount year for 42 years.  2021 is first year received.    received check February 2021 and January 2022.    2022 check was dated 12/27 but received in January 2022. my question is where the best place is to note the discrepancy of the amount for EFile  Thank you
