Grogan, Lalnunmawia, and Tripathi list options to enhance shifting cultivation, such as nutrient and water supplementation, optimization of crop choice to extend the site-use period, along with measures to further retain soil and fertility, including judicious use of commercial fertilizer coupled with organic inputs. Jhum farming, with or without refinements, and modified multi-cropping systems such as the Changkham model and Sloping Area Agricultural Technology (SALT) are all preferable to monoculture plantations such as oil palm.
Similarly, a better informed, planned, and sustainable approach to oil palm cultivation is urgently needed in Mizoram. This would include avoiding its cultivation in crucial watersheds and areas of high conservation value. It will also require changing land-use practices in oil palm plantations to follow international standards, including the protection of strips of forests along rivers, the retention of native trees and bamboo, and the conservation of community forests and reserves in the wider landscape. Until such an approach is adopted, one will have to view oil palm expansion with great trepidation.
