Khilji also regulated the agricultural market by extending the area through the purchase of land due to which the revenue was fixed based on half the value of production. Mongol dynasty was incorporated from 1649 AD till 1818 AD. Mongols used irrigation and methods of dry farming for centuries. They mainly focus on producing wheat, barley, potatoes and trading those products to other countries which helped in improving the economic conditions.
