'''Barlan'''( '''बरलाँ''' ) is a village in the [[Hadoti]] region of [[Rajasthan]], India. It serves as a [[Gram panchayat]] for five nearby villages which are Hani Hera, Patthukhedi, Amapura, Lolahedi and Seendhni. The nearest town is [[Atru]], which is {{cvt|7|km}} away. It is located 30 km from the district headquarter, Baran. Barlan is a pioneer in [[kabaddi]] sport. Barlan has produced the finest physical teachers.

== History ==
Barlan was [[feudal]] or [[jagir]] and was the part of [[Kota State|Kota Riyasat]] along with other ''Zamindar'' feudal villages like Bhainsara(Bhensada) and Bokara(Bokada). The feudal tax as gold or equivalent valuable things were sent to Kota state on mules. They were escorted by the [[Zamindar]]. For mules, a special place was assigned to each Zamindar.

== Economy ==
The village is highly dependent on agriculture activities. People in the village raise livestock like [[Bubalus|buffalos]], sheep, [[cows]], [[goats]], and poultry. Every household owns the small land but to grow crop is not possible for everyone. The input cost for [[plowing]], [[sowing]], maintenance, [[irrigation]],
and [[harvesting]] are very high. To avoid the economic burden of the land, people rent their land to other farmers. Since the groundwater level in Barlan is very low (800 feet), borewell often fails and results in the insurmountable burden of irrigation cost.

=== Crops and vegetables ===
Due to low monsoon rainfall and water depletion farmers usually grow two crops in a year. In 2018 [[Rabi crop]] winter season [[chickpea|chana]], and [[Mustard plant|mustard]] was grown on almost 95% land of the village. Some farmers were not able to irrigate their crops not even once. The rate of irrigation per [[bigha]] goes from {{INR}}1000 up to {{INR}} 3000 which is almost unbearable to any farmer.

== Literacy and employment ==
According to the 2011 census data, a total of 522 people in the village are literate. The overall literacy rate of Barlan is 71%; 85% for men, and 56% for women.

On the total population, 416 were engaged in work activities. 46.63% of workers describe their work as Main Work (Employment or Earning more than 6 Months) while 53.37% were involved in Marginal activity such as [[NREGA]], providing a livelihood for less than 6 months. Of 416 workers engaged in Main Work, 126 were cultivators (owner or co-owner) while 46 were agricultural labourers.

== Sports and games ==
