The land rent is levied by so much on each crop, by a biga of nine common
cubits the Katha, equal to 72,900 square feet. The following was the
rate at the time when I procured the account; but the chief of the
village, (Mokuddum,) for every hundred bigas that pay rent, is allowed
five free of that charge.
Rate in the year Sambat 1868, A.D. 1810.
