Second, it is a way to fertilize the soil with ash from the burned trees. Third, it is a way to control pests and diseases. Fourth, it is a way to manage the forest.<\/p>\n<p>Jhum cultivation has both positive and negative impacts. On the positive side, it is a sustainable way to use land that is not suitable for other types of agriculture. It also helps to maintain the biodiversity of the forest. On the negative side, it can lead to deforestation, soil erosion, and water pollution.<\/p>\n<p>In recent years, there has been a decline in the practice of jhum cultivation. This is due to a number of factors, including the expansion of commercial agriculture, the development of infrastructure, and the government&#8217;s efforts to promote sustainable land use practices.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the decline in its practice, jhum cultivation remains an important part of the culture and economy of many hill tribes. It is a way of life that has been passed down for generations, and it is a way of connecting with the land.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Subscribe on
