Can you be any more cryptic?
It's storage costs minus convenience yield.
You can also interpret it as the rate used to force the spot price and futures price to be equal, if interest costs are known.

Suppose the continuously compounded convenience yield is c, proportional to the value of the commodity. The commodity lender saves l - c by not physi- cally storing the commodity; hence, the commodity borrower pays d = c - l, compensating the lender for convenience yield less storage cost.

The lease rate = commodity discount rate – growth rate

sure, it is similar to div yield, the lease rate (or convenience yield)
