Landrentestelsel

Taxation system in the Dutch East Indies

The Landrentestelsel (literally: Land Securities System) was a system of taxation in the Dutch East Indies, in which the indigenous population paid 2/5 of its agricultural products grown or a similar sum to the colonial administration. It was replaced with the Cultivation System by Johannes van den Bosch in 1830.
