primitive:
The forests are usually cleared by fire and the ashes add to the fertility of the soil. Trees that are not burnt are hacked out by the men or left to decay naturally. Shifting cultivation is thus also called ‘slash-and-burn agriculture’.

(iii) The cultivated patches are usually very small; about 0.5-1 hectare (1-3 acres) scattered in their distribution and separated from one another by dense forests or bush
insensitive:
Farms have been subdivided through many generations so they have become extremely small and often uneconomic to run. An average farm in Japan is approximately 0.6 hectare (about 1.5 acres) but in India and elsewhere in Asia farms may be even smaller.

Individual peasants grow crops mainly to support their own families, though there is some surplus for sale in some areas. In China, however, rapid agricultural changes took place after the agrarian revolution of 1949 when the tiny farms were consolidated, under communist rule, into large collectives.
