Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In shifting agriculture, a clearing is made in the forest, usually on the slopes of hills. After the trees have been cut, they are burnt to provide ashes. The seeds are then scattered in the area, and left to be irrigated by the rain. Once the soil loses its fertility, the farmers shift to another forest.
Detailed explanation-2: -Rotation of fields. Use of fire for clearing the land. Keeping the land fallow for regeneration for a number of years. Use of human labour as main input. Non-employment of draught animals. More items •11-Jan-2016
