The lands of the Kirana Bár to the east and south of the hills are of superb quality for agriculture.[2] After slight showers of rain, the whole land is carpeted with grass. Better rain crops are grown here than in the Sandal Bar. To the west of Kirana and westwards until the villages near the Jhelum River are reached, the bar soil deteriorates, and more and more kallar (water logging) is found. The Kirana bár is demarcated from the 'Utar' (North) by the same fall or slope as the Sandal Bar. Generally, this ledge forms the boundary between the villages and the Government waste grounds. But few villages possess lands beyond the high bank, or 'Nakka' as it is called. The flora of this Bár is much the same as that of the Sándal. Sajjí is produced to the southwest of Kirána. Some peculiar grasses grow on and near the hills, that are considered to be of most excellent quality.
