Akbar adopted sher Shah's system of land revenue but introduced many changes in the system
Dashala System
Raja Todar Mal introduced the Dashala System.

2.The state's share was one - third of average yield.
3.The land was divided into four groups - land which was cultivated continuously and which yielded revenue every year;land which was left uncultivated so that it could regain its productivity;land which was left fallow for three to four years;and banjar land which was not cultivated for 5 or more years.
4.if crops failed because of drought or floods,the cultivators needed to pay only a part of the land revenue.
