According to Kullūka one who has corn sufficient for three years is called 'kusūladhānya' as suggested by Manu X. 7; while 'kumbhīdhānya' is one who has a store of corn for one year. Medhātithi says that there is no restriction to corn only; one who has wealth either in corn or money to satisfy his needs for three years is 'kusūladhānya'; according to Govindarāja, 'kusūladhānya' and 'kumbhīdhānya' are respectively those who have corn for 12 and 6 days. The Mit. on Yāj. I. 128 accepts Govindarāja's explanation. - [Previous: v2.c20.23](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v2.c20.23) - [Next: v2.c20.25](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v2.c20.25) - [Up: v2.c20](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v2.c20) ## Cites (2) - [Mānava Dharmaśāstra](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.dharma.manu.4.7) — Manu & Bhṛgu, Sanskrit - [Yājñavalkyasmṛti](https://indike.org/pramana/in.niti.dharma.yajnavalkya.1.128) — Yājñavalkya, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v2.c20.24](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.kane-1930.v2.c20.24) · Pramāṇa
