About Bigha in Haryana

Historical Background in Haryana

The Bigha unit has ancient roots in India’s agrarian society and was traditionally used to measure farmland and rural landholdings.

This diversity persists today, resulting in varied Bigha-to-square foot or Bigha-to-acre conversions in Haryana and other Indian states.
