Jhum cultivation, also known as the slash and burn agriculture, is the process of growing crops by first clearing the land of trees and vegetation and burning them thereafter. The burnt soil contains potash which increases the nutrient content of the soil

Jhoom farming is very interesting. After cutting one crop the land is left as it is for some years. Nothing is grown there. The bamboo or weeds with grow on that land are not pulled out. They are cut and burnt. The Ash also makes the land fertile. While burning, care is taken so that the fire does not spread to the other parts of the forest. When the land is ready for farming it is lightly dug up, not ploughed. Seeds are dropped on it. In one farm different types of crops like maze, vegetables, chillies, rice etc can be grown.
