Answer 1

_______________Hey dude here is your answers__________________

Answer : For administrative and economic reasons, the British government tried settling the jhum cultivators. However, settled plough cultivation did not prove to be helpful for them. They often suffered because their land did not produce good yields......

They wanted tribal groups to settle down and become settled cultivators as it would be easier to control and administer people who were in one place. The British also found it easy to collect revenue from people who were settled in one place and maintain records on them........

Answer 2

Answer:

The British wanted the shifting cultivators to settle down and became peasant cultivators. But settled plough cultivation is not easy in areas where water is scarce and the soil is dry. In fact, shifting cultivators who took to plough cultivation often suffered. Their fields did not produce good yields. Still they had to pay revenue fixed, by the British. In northeast India the shifting cultivators insisted on continuing with their traditional practice. They began to protest the new method.
