Shifting cultivation isn't a type of intensive farming practice. It is a form of extensive farming, characterized by the practice of clearing land for agriculture, cultivating it for a few years, and then moving to a new area to repeat the process. Intensive farming practices, on the other hand, typically aim to maximize yields from a smaller area of land through methods such as market gardening and mixed crop/livestock systems.
