The adangal, briefly
The adangal (அடங்கல்) is the village crop register kept by the village administrative officer, recording what was cultivated on each survey in each season.
- Kept by
- The VAO
The village administrative officer records the crop on each survey, season by season.
- Covers
- Village land
Town survey land has no adangal. This register holds rural surveys only.
- A blank entry
- Not fallow
Large parts of the state have no entries at all. No entry means none is recorded, not that nothing grows there.

When it helps with land
Agricultural land
A recorded crop is evidence the land was cultivated, which matters for agricultural land and its conversion.
Two patta numbers
The crop register and the A-register are kept separately. When their patta numbers differ, the answer says so.
Beside the patta
Read with the patta and chitta, the adangal is the third part of the familiar patta, chitta, adangal set.
The adangal records what was declared for a season. It does not prove ownership or what stands on the land today. Check the holder in the patta and visit the land.
Questions people ask
What is adangal?
The adangal is the village crop register kept by the village administrative officer. It records what was cultivated on each survey in each season, with the irrigation source and the extent.
How do I get the adangal online?
Pick the district, taluk and village above, type the survey number and press Run. The e-Adangal entry is read live and shown in English and Tamil. If the portal does not answer, our stored copy of the register is shown instead, with the date it was read.
The record is empty. Is the land uncultivated?
No. Large parts of the state have no entries at all. An empty register says nothing about what is on the ground.
Does town land have an adangal?
No. The adangal is kept for village land only.
Why give the patta number?
The crop register is indexed by survey and by patta. When the survey index holds no entry, the patta number lets the patta index be read too, so an entry filed only under the patta is not missed.
Why do the patta numbers differ?
The crop register and the A-register are maintained separately and can drift apart. Ask the village administrative officer which one is current.
Does the adangal prove who owns the land?
No. It records cultivation as declared, not ownership. The holder is in the patta and chitta.
Is it charged when there is no entry?
No. An empty register is not charged.
