Answer:
Jhum cultivation is also called as shifting cultivation and is practiced by tribal groups in northeastern states on a small patch of land. In this cultivation, the area is first cleared of trees and vegetation and then burnt after that. The ash that remained after burning acts as fertilizer for the soil. The seeds are scattered on the ground. The tribal groups move to another land after harvesting the crop.
