Slash and burn agriculture

The Trek 2000 trip to Madagascar with the Rainforest Foundation.

 

Somewhere near Ambohimahamasina.

 

An example of another huge problem - slash and burn - clear the jungle to make was for rice fields, which are only sustainable for a shirt few seasons - then move on to clear more jungle.
