hello

  • A form of agriculture, used especially in tropical Africa, in which an area of ground is cleared of vegetation and cultivated for a few years and then abandoned for a new area until its fertility has been naturally restored.
  • After the soil loses its fertility, the land is abandoned and the cultivator moves to a new plot. The major disadvantage of Shifting Cultivation is that many trees in the forest are cut and this increases soil infertility and leads to soil erosion.

I hope my answer helps you.....
