The Agricultural Journal of India

1917

The circumstances which led to the establishment of whats known as the tahuidari system are matters of history ; it suffices to quote the fact as set out in the Imperial Gazetteer that after the Mutiny 22 658 out of 36 721 villages were settled with tahuriars. [...] nor the capital of the occupancy tenants of the Agra province and were slower in responing to the influence of the Department. [...] How valuable this assistance has been can be judged from the fact that in the present year when there is a scarcity of reliable seed on account of the damage to the grain on the threshing floors in the western districts the Department has been able to buy back over 2 000 wands mainly from the farms of the Raja of Amethi the Hon'ble Raja Sir Rampal Singh of Kuiri Sudhauli and Raja Partab Bahad [...] The reason is partly the reliance of the cultivator on the bania's shop for his supply the excessive rate being an insurance against the bad germnation of a very unreliable seed. [...] To show how unnecessary this rate of sowing is with selected seed carefully stored arrangements have been made at some of the farms to show the results of sowing at different rates and the negative advantages of the common rate of sowing.
