Slash and burn refers to the agricultural practice of clearing a forest by cutting down trees and burning them.
The ash is mixed with the soil to make it fertile.
The land is cultivated for a few years and is thereafter abandoned to allow the forest to regenerate and the land to recover its nutrients.
It is also known as shifting cultivation or Jhumming.
