essentially the production of goods and services to cover the needs of the local
population and the inputs coming primarily in the form of productive
labour. |

Anthropological and ecological considerations regarding the
transition of shifting cultivation in the tropics. African Soils, 18, 2, p.
59-68. In the tropics, population pressure may force a transition of the
traditional shifting cultivation system to another cultivation system.
Understanding the ecological, economic and social aspects of shifting
cultivation can help to avoid costly mistakes if the system is to be modified or
even completely changed. This article attempts to summarise pertinent ecological
and anthropological information on two basic aspects of shifting cultivation,
fallowing and burning, and outlines fields of anthropological research which can
contribute to the progressive transition of shifting cultivators. |
