Question

explain with reason the type of occupation that can flourish in amazon basin

Answer 1

The Amazon basin is the part of South America drained by the Amazon River and its tributaries. Roughly 40 percent of the South American continent comes under the Amazon basin and it is located in the countries of Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Guyana, Peru, Suriname, and Venezuela. Most of the basin is covered by the Amazon Rainforest, also known as Amazonia which is is the largest rainforest in the world.

The people living in many regions of the Amazonia have the forests cleared for soya bean plantations and ranching. Some of the inhabitants also harvest wild rubber latex and Brazil nuts. Lumbering or agriculture is also one of the occupations in the Amazonia. Dry-season riverside agriculture of rice, beans, and corn is also an important occupation found on the river's shoreline. Charcoal that is made from the forests and shoreline deadfall is produced for use in urban areas. The other occupations include fishing, growing free-range chickens, and exploitation of bushmeat especially of deer and turtles.
