How was the Ryoti system disadvantageous for cultivators
Answers
Answer: the ryoti system was harmful to farmers as
1) the planters insisted on cultivating it on the best soil, which the farmers preffered to use for rice.
2) indigo was cultivated in the same time as rice, so bullocks and ploughs were working for cultivating rice crops.
3) indigo has deep roots and takes all the nutrient content from the soil, so rice could not be grown after indigo
Explanation:
Answer:
The agronomists forced Ryots to subscribe to the agreement or a contract so that they could give them the loans to grow indigo at a lower rate of interest. The agronomists wanted tillers to produce indigo on at least 25 per cent of the area held by them. They handed the tillers with seeds and drills whereas the Ryots had to prepare the soil, sow the seeds and looked after the crop. This system came to be known as the ‘ Ryotwari system ’.
The disadvantages of the ryotwari system were as follows:
• Ryots or tillers were handed with the loan to cultivate the Indigo. originally, ryots set up this deal seductive but latterly they realised the quantum they're getting paid was low as compared to the Indigo that has been produced by them.
• The loan that had been given was no way-ending. After every crop, they were handed a loan to cultivate Indigo.
• The agronomists wanted indigo to be cultivated in the soil whereas the growers wanted the rice to be cultivated in similar soil.
- The nonstop civilization of indigo led to the prostration of the soil as it has deep roots and the land can not be used to sow rice.
