What is the reason being soil infertility during slash and burn agriculture?

\huge\bold{</u><u>Answer</u><u>}

In this traditional, widespread technique, forest is converted to agricultural land by cutting and subsequently burning trees, the ashes being used to amend the soil. After few years (between 2–4 years, depending on the regions) of repetitive cultivation, crop yield decreases while weeds invade the agricultural fields.

{\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:}so, the slash and burn process successfully clears land for agriculture and introduces fertilizing nutrients into the soil, leaving it in excellent condition to grow crops. The catch with slash and burn agriculture is that the fertilization from the burning has only a temporary effect.

\huge\blue\bigstar\pink{Disadvantage }

{\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:}{\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:} One of the disadvantages of using slash and burn agriculture is deforestation. When this type of agriculture is practiced by large populations, they have to cut down a lot of trees to grow new crops. This leads to an increase in carbon dioxide levels. Furthermore, these high levels of CO2 boost climate change effects.
