Explanation:
Under this system , indigo cultivation was done by riots.The planters made the ryots to sign a contract (satta).
Sometimes they pressurised the village headman to sign it on behalf of the ryots.After signing it the ryots got cash advances frm the planters.But after taking the loan the riot was committed to grow indigo on at least 25% of his land holding.
But the planters always bought indigo at low prices and hence the riots were always in debt trap.
