Solution
The revenue system benefited both the state and the farmers. This system provided the state with a fixed and steady source of income whereas to farmers it helped in many ways like the farmers were able to get loans on easy installments for buying seeds, cattle, and implements. The calculation of revenue was also based on the type of land i.e. good, bad, or middle. If the crops of the farmers failed due to drought or flood the revenue was also remitted by the state.
