Abstract:
We surveyed about the Jhum cultivation of Langadu upazila , Rangamati and Babuchara,
Dighinala in Khagrachari. Collected the data based on interview. This survey was conducted
from August 2020 to December 2020. The objectives of this survey is to assess the impact of
Jhum cultivation, the factors of environment degradation and review the existing crops
production system in hilly area and their performances. About 30 persons are taken to interview
and collected many data based on the survey. Data is collected in three parts, general
information of Jhum owners, assessing the existing crop production system explaining the
detail information about the Jhum cultivation. Ages, educational qualification, types of Jhum
production system and use of the fertilizers, were analyzed to the green roofs. Most of the
respondents are < 50 years but all the respondents are uneducated and it is observed that 10
persons out of 30 were educated.
Shifting cultivation is not, at this point an appropriate land use both ecological and monetary
points of view, and there is have to supplant such land use steadily with elective locally
reasonable land-use frameworks (Knudsren and Khan, 2002). Step by step populace pressure
is expanding in the bumpy one of Bangladesh and because of land shortage the nearby
individual’s can’t move to somewhere else. Jhum cultivation is currently practicing on
perpetual territory in the cases soil has losing its ripeness and Jhum cultivator’s can’t getting
enough money crops thus it having hard to job for Jhum cultivator just by Jhum cultivation.
The reduction in neglected period has prompted the crumbling of faunal and microbial living
beings, top soil moisture and land corruption because slicing furthermore consuming during
the time of substantial precipitation. Slope ranchers hence face a grim future with Jhum
cultivation. So in this current circumstance the Jhum cultivators may be receive to social ranger
service program as an elective wellspring of pay for vocation just as to expand woods spread
in the Chittagong Hill Tracts.
