Shifting cultivation is most commonly found in tropical places which have less rain forests.
Explanation:
Shifting agriculture, also known as pastoral nomadism. It is the act of clearing the land by burning it after cultivation. After the nutrients of a piece of land are exhausted, pastoral nomads clear the place by burning it and move to another place for agriculture.
This usually happens in the Middle East and in the northern regions of Africa as they have less tropical rain forests. This is an advantage over using fertilizers in the agricultural lands which can tend to destroy the soil quality of the land.
