Answer 2

shifting cultivation is usually practiced by tribal people. In this method, a piece of land is used to grow crops for a certain time period and then they move on to another patch for growing there crops somewhere else after burning the previous piece of land completely. After 15-16 years they again return to the previous piece of land on which they were at the starting after burning the piece of land they were now living before.
