Page scope
Tosh-Kutla is the Locality page for the Kutla fields above Tosh and the higher fields of Goi, Chhorang and Sharam Thatch, which give their locality to nine accessions. The title is hyphenated; Tosh Kutla redirects here. The appellations are Tosh Kutla (appellation) and, for the two Sharam Thatch accessions, Tosh Glacier (appellation). Other places called Kutla are listed at Kutla. The 2011 census does not enumerate it.

Coordinates and elevation
- The infobox point, 32.0321, 77.4771, is the OpenStreetMap node "Kutla" (node 7673849246, place=locality). SRTM gives 2,835 m there.
- The two 'Village' accessions store 32.028744, 77.463955 at 2,764 m (SRTM 2,783 m), about 1.3 km west-south-west of the OSM node. Goi stores 3,100 m, Chhorang 2,954 m and Sharam Thatch 3,237 m.
- The collector's post of 10 February 2023 puts the Goi fields at "3500m"; the Goi accessions store 3,100 m. The documentation's lot altitudes are 2,400–3,000 m for the Kutla lots and 3,000–3,200 m or 3,500 m for the higher fields. Reported, not reconciled.
- OpenStreetMap also has a hamlet Regi (node 8623811514, SRTM 2,522 m) between Tosh and the Kutla node.
Source notes
- LMF-IND-HIM-0120260004 (Landrace Mafia, "Tosh Village Domesticated") stored the locality Kutla; it now stores Tosh-Kutla. The seller's location line reads "Kutla, Parvati Valley at 2700 metres", but its coordinate (32.0154, 77.4537) falls on Tosh village (SRTM 2,471 m), and the line's name is Tosh Village. The value follows the seller's named place; the conflict is not resolved.
- Spelling: the accession titles write Chhorang; the collection documentation and the index of growing regions write Chorang. The article uses Chhorang throughout.
- The documentation lists one Goi lot and two Chorang lots; the wiki holds two Goi and two Chhorang accessions, one of each pair named "Black".
- The index of growing regions splits the fields into "Tosh Lower 'Kutla' Fields" (tagged "Eradicated in 2005") and "Tosh Upper 'Kutla' Fields" (tagged "Eradications Ongoing"). It does not say which of the two the 'Village' accessions come from.
- The Tribune (24 September 2019) writes "Tosh Kutla" in a list headed "Cultivation areas"; the same list gives the Malana-valley areas "Thisco, Waichin, Magic, Neeramg".
