The 19 pages that link to Shifting cultivation, each with the reason it gives.

• DeforestationRelated: Shortened fallow periods can prevent cleared forest from recovering.

• AgroforestryCompared with: Its land-use cycle differs from agroforestry's deliberate integration of persistent woody plants.

• Land-use changeRelated: Its rotating fields show how land use can change over time without permanent conversion.

• Subsistence agricultureBroader topic: This system supports household production where long fallows restore cropped land.

• Slash-and-burn agricultureNarrower topic: Slash-and-burn is one way to clear plots within this broader rotational system.

• Subsistence economyBroader topic: It can support subsistence where soils lose fertility after repeated cultivation.

• MilpaNarrower topic: Many milpa systems include clearing, cultivation, and fallow cycles.

• Rainfed agricultureRelated: Many forms rely on rainfall and fallow cycles rather than irrigation.

• FallowRelated: Fallow periods are central to traditional shifting cultivation systems.

• Tropical agricultureRelated: Long fallows can restore fertility where population pressure and land access permit.

• Biomass burningRelated: Burning vegetation can prepare plots within some shifting cultivation systems.

• Miombo woodlandRelated: Clearing miombo for crops can create fields, with regrowth during fallow periods.

• SubsistenceBroader topic: It combines food production with reliance on locally regenerating land.

• African agricultureRelated: Long fallows can restore soil fertility where land is available, but population pressure often shortens them.

• Multiple croppingCompared with: It organizes production by changing field location, rather than necessarily adding crops within one year.

• Agricultural expansionRelated: Its temporary clearings can expand farming while allowing some land to recover.

• Extensive farmingBroader topic: It is a land-extensive crop system whose rotation depends on fallow land.

• Ryanggang ProvinceRelated: Ryanggang’s terrain and limited arable land have made small-scale upland farming significant.

• Agricultural cycleCompared with: Its field-use sequence includes relocation rather than repeating cultivation on one plot.
