Shifting cultivation is a unique and centuries-old practice carried out by the people of Mizoram in Northeast India. Today, it is a non-economic activity as it does not produce sufficient crops, and as a result, the area under shifting cultivation is decreasing. Such cultivation leads to the burning and degradation of vast areas of forestland and therefore has adverse impacts on the floral and faunal resources. This book is a valuable resource for government workers, policymakers, academics, farmers and those who are directly or indirectly associated with practical farming, or with framing and implementing policies. It is equally important to master?s and Ph.D. students of geography, resource management, development, and environmental studies who are involved in research and development. 410 0$aEnvironmental Science,$x1431-6250 606 $aEconomic geography 606 $aEnvironmental geography 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aEconomic Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J12000 606 $aEnvironmental Geography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J19010 606 $aRegional Development$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913050 615 0$aEconomic geography. 615 0$aEnvironmental geography. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 14$aEconomic Geography. 615 24$aEnvironmental Geography. 615 24$aRegional Development. 676 $a338.162 676 $a631.5818 700 $aSati$b Vishwambhar Prasad$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0908192 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910366644403321 996 $aEconomic and Ecological Implications of Shifting Cultivation in Mizoram, India$92111519 997 $aUNINA
