What problems did shifting cultivators facing under British rule
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 4 months ago

  1. For administrative and economic reasons, the British government tried settling the jhum or shifting cultivators. However, settled plough cultivation did not prove to be helpful to these jhum cultivators.
  2. They often suffered because their fields did not produce good yields. The new forest laws also affected the lives of the shifting cultivators.
  3.  Shifting or jhum cultivation is usually done on small patches of forest land. Under the forest laws, the British extended their control over all forests and declared that forests were state property.
  4. Thus, the jhum cultivators were prevented from practising jhum cultivation freely. Many were forced to move to other areas in search of work and livelihood.
