 last. Notwithstanding the redemption of one or more of the liens against
 SUCH a parcel as provided [herein]  IN  THIS  ARTICLE,  the  enforcement
 process  shall  proceed  according  to the provisions of this article as

 ERTY, THE LIENS MUST BE REDEEMED IN CHRONOLOGICAL  ORDER,  SO  THAT  THE
 LIEN  WITH  THE  EARLIEST LIEN DATE IS REDEEMED FIRST, AND THE LIEN WITH
 THE MOST RECENT LIEN DATE IS REDEEMED LAST. NOTWITHSTANDING THE  REDEMP-
 TION  OF ONE OR MORE OF THE LIENS AGAINST A PARCEL THAT IS FARM PROPERTY
 AS PROVIDED IN THIS  ARTICLE,  THE  ENFORCEMENT  PROCESS  SHALL  PROCEED
 ACCORDING  TO  THE PROVISIONS OF THIS ARTICLE AS LONG AS THE MOST RECENT
 LIEN REMAINS UNREDEEMED.
   2. (a) When one or more liens against a parcel, THAT IS NOT FARM PROP-
 ERTY, are redeemed as provided [herein] IN THIS ARTICLE, but the  earli-
 est  lien remains unredeemed, the receipt issued to the person redeeming
