Discussion
Which of the following is not correctly matched ?
Answer: D
The pair not correctly matched is Berbecho - Thailand.
Shifting (slash-and-burn) cultivation has a local name in each region where it is practised. The usual name in Thailand is Tamrai, so pairing Thailand with Berbecho is wrong.
The other three pairs are standard. Milpa is the shifting cultivation of maize in Mexico and Central America. Caingin (kaingin) is the name used in the Philippines. Podu is practised by tribal communities in the hills of Andhra Pradesh and Odisha in India. Other names that appear in such lists are Ladang in Malaysia and Indonesia, Taungya in Myanmar, Chena in Sri Lanka and Jhum in north-east India.
