Khādir or Khadar and Bangar, Bāngur or Bhangar (Hindi language: खादर और बांगर, Urdu languageکهادر اور بانگر) are terms used in Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi and Sindhi in the Indo-Gangetic plains of North India and Pakistan to differentiate between two types of river plains and alluvial soils. Bangur and Khadir areas are commonly found in the doab regions. Some villages may have both Khadar and Bangar areas within their revenue boundaries. Bhangar soils are less fertile as they are above flood level whereas Khadar soils are more fertile as they are below the flood level. Bhanger is full of kankers (lime nodules) while khadar soil is composed of fine silt and clay.It is fertile land as it contains alluvial soil deposited by rivers.

  • Khaddar (o khādir o khadar; in hindi: खादर) è un termine utilizzato in hindi, urdu, punjabi e sindhi nelle pianure indo-gangetiche dell'India settentrionale e del Pakistan per indicare un particolare tipo di pianura fluviale e suolo alluvionale. Le pianure khaddar sono quelle più pianeggianti situate in prossimità di un fiume. Tali aree vengono spesso inondate e talvolta includono parti di antichi letti fluviali che possono essere coltivati dopo che un fiume ha mutato il proprio corso. Il suolo che le costituisce trattiene l'umidità, è costituito da recenti depositi alluvionali ed è spesso molto fertile. Le zone più elevate e distanti dal viene vengono dette bangar. (it)
