### [c6.s1.55](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.ashraf-1935.c6.s1.55)

It is difficult to convert the possible grain surplus of the peasant or of other labourers in the village into a cash money-value for comparison with other classes whose standards of income will be discussed later. As compared with them, the peasant usually worked hard and unceasingly, almost day and night during certain seasons of the year. His exacting labour was shared by his wife and other members of the family.⁴
