Question : 25 [SSC SO 2007]
"Slash and Burn agriculture" is the name given to
a) method of potato cultivation
b) mixed farming
c) process of deforestation
d) shifting cultivation
Answer »Answer: (d)
Slash-and-burn is an agricultural technique that involves cutting and burning forests or woodlands to create fields. It is subsistence agriculture that typically uses little technology or other tools.
It is typically part of shifting cultivation agriculture, and of transhumance livestock herding. In slash-and-burn agriculture, the forest will typically be cut months before a dry season.
The "slash" is permitted to dry and then burned in the following dry season. The resulting ash fertilizes the soil, and the burned field is then planted at the beginning of the next rainy season with crops such as upland rice, maize, cassava, or another staple crop.
Most of this work is typically done by hand, using machetes, axes, hoes, and other such basic tools.
