Jhooming is a type of shifting cultivation practiced in the Indian subcontinent. It is also known as slash-and-burn agriculture. Farmers clear a piece of forest by cutting down trees and burning them. The ashes from the fire fertilize the soil, and the farmers plant crops in the cleared area. After a few years, the soil becomes depleted, and the farmers move to a new area.

The ashes from the fire fertilize the soil, and the farmers plant crops in the cleared area. After a few years, the soil becomes depleted, and the farmers move to a new area.

The ashes from the fire fertilize the soil, and the farmers plant crops in the cleared area. After a few years, the soil becomes depleted, and the farmers move to a new area.
