The Bigha unit has ancient roots in India’s agrarian society and was traditionally used to measure farmland and rural landholdings. Its usage in West Bengal predates the Mughal and British colonial eras but was formalized during both regimes. Since different rulers and regions used their own standards for Bigha, no nationwide standard conversion emerged. This diversity persists today, resulting in varied Bigha-to-square foot or Bigha-to-acre conversions in West Bengal and other Indian states.
