Solution

The correct option is A Shifting cultivation
Podu is an ancient practice in the hilly regions. It is also called shifting cultivation. The name 'shifting cultivation' comes from the fact that the piece of land is abandoned after 3 to 4 years of cultivation and a new piece of land is used in its place.
