Solution

The correct option is B Shifting agriculture
Shifting cultivation combines farming with forested habitats. It is also called swidden or slash and burn and is commonly found throughout the Amazon and other tropical regions worldwide. Shifting cultivation systems are designed to adapt to the soil and climatic characteristics like lower soil fertility, high precipitation, and fast leaching of nutrients.
