Under Shifting cultivation, a piece of land is used for quite some years until the fertility is dropped. After that the farmers move to the new plots. It is practiced by tribal and also known as Burn and Slash cultivation. It is known as Jhoom in Assam, Onam in Kerala, Podu in Andhra Pradesh and Odisha. The same is known as Bewar in Madhya Pradesh.
Chena cultivation or shifting agriculture is the most primitive type of agriculture known to man from the dawn of civilization, practiced in Sri Lanka.
