Shifting cultivation is a form of agriculture which involves clearing of a plot of land by cutting of trees and burning them. The ashes are then mixed with the soil and crops are grown. After the land has lost its fertility, it is abandoned. The farmers then move to a new place.
Disadvantages:
Leads to deforestation
Loss of fertility of a particular land
Leads to Soil erosion
Burning of trees – air pollution
Insufficient cultivation of crops for a large population.
