REASONS FOR COLONIAL GOVERNMENT BANNING SHIFTING CULTIVATION IN INDIA...
(1) Europeans regarded this practice as harmful for forests.
(2) They felt that the land which was used for cultivation every few years could not grow trees for railway timber.
(3) When a forest was burnt, there was the added danger of the flames spreading and burning valuable timber.
(4) Shifting cultivation also made it harder for the government to calculate taxes. Therefore, the government decided to ban shifting cultivation.
(5) As a result , many communities were forcibly displaced from their homes in the forests.
