Question

write about Akbar's revenue system

Answer 1

A proper land revenue system was founded by Akbar. However, the system of Akbar was itself based on what Shershah Suri implemented during his short tenure. Thus, the land revenue system of Akbar was neither an innovation nor an invention. His indebtedness to the earlier rulers is immense but this has not diminished his fame as far as land revenue system is concerned. He followed the policy of Shershah with greater precision and correctness and then extended it to various subah or provinces of his empire. But this correction or precision did not came overnight. Initially was tortuous enough to turn peasants into beggars, and forcing them to sell their wives and children. But it was revised several times.

Answer 2

Answer:

Land was the main source of income of the state. Because the state officers /Mansabdars were paid their salary in grant of jagir, it was necessary to know how much revenue a particular Jagirdar would collect and how much each one ought to provide. This information made it simple for the Emperor to grant a jagir. Raja Todar Mal was incharge of the land revenue and land assessment.
