After the initial use of the Ryotwari system, Munro implemented it in the whole of Madras in 1820 AD. Under this there was a direct settlement or relationship between the company and the ryots (farmers).There was no role of any Zamindar or middleman in the determination of revenue and collection of rent.

Under the Mahalwari system, the land revenue was collected from the farmers by the village headmen on behalf of the whole village. Under the Ryotwari system, the land revenue was paid by the farmers directly to the state. The Zamindari system was started by the Imperialist East India Company in 1793.
