Solution

The correct option is B shifting
The tribals of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana follow a type of cultivation called Podu cultivation, a type of shifting cultivation that employs methods like slash-and-burn. In this type of cultivation, they clear out a piece of forest land by burning it. Then, crops are grown on it. After a couple of years, they move onto the next piece of land.
