Slash-and-burn agriculture, or fire–fallow cultivation, is a farming method that involves the cutting and burning of plants in a forest or woodland to create a field called a swidden. (Preparing fields by deforestation is called assarting.) In subsistence agriculture, slash-and-burn typically uses little technology. It is often applied in shifting cultivation agriculture (such as in the Amazon rainforest) and in transhumance livestock herding.[1]
Slash-and-burn is used by 200–500 million people worldwide.[2][3] In 2004 it was estimated that in Brazil alone, 500,000 small farmers each cleared an average of one hectare (2.47105 acres) of forest per year[4]. The technique is not scalable or sustainable for large human populations. Methods such as Inga alley farming have been proposed[5]as alternatives which would cause less environmental degradation.[6]
