The pair Kuddapah-kar : Rocky wastelands is not correctly matched as a standard land classification.
While ‘Nancai’ refers to wet fields, ‘Puncai’ to dry fields, and ‘Tottakal’ to garden lands (common terms in South Indian land classification), ‘Kuddapah-kar’ is not a general term for rocky wastelands. It refers to a specific type of cultivation or land classification primarily associated with the Cuddapah region in South India, often implying a specific cropping pattern or land use which might include dry or semi-dry cultivation, not necessarily just rocky wasteland in a general sense.
