This practice has been used for centuries by many indigenous peoples around the world, including those in the hills of Manipur.<\/p>\n<p>Colonial-era restrictions on shifting cultivation were imposed in an effort to promote more permanent forms of agriculture. These restrictions had a major impact on tribal communities, who relied on shifting cultivation for their livelihoods. The restrictions made it difficult for tribal communities to access land, and they also led to the loss of traditional knowledge and practices.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of these restrictions, many tribal communities were forced to abandon their traditional way of life and move to urban areas in search of work. This led to social and economic problems, as well as the loss of cultural identity.<\/p>\n<p>The <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> impact of colonial-era restrictions on shifting cultivation is still being felt today by tribal communities in Manipur.

Colonial-era restrictions on shifting cultivation did not have a major impact on these farmers.<\/li>\n<li>Option (c): Urban workers.
