Question

Which is the incorrect pair ? 
Shifting Cultivation - Country

Accepted Answer

Option 3 is the incorrect pair because "Masole" is not a recognized term for shifting cultivation practiced in Brazil. The common term for shifting cultivation in Brazil is "Slash-and-burn agriculture" or "Swidden agriculture," and sometimes referred to by local names depending on the region and indigenous group. "Masole" doesn't align with established agricultural practices or terminology associated with Brazil.

Here's why the other options are incorrect:

*   **Option 1: Caingin - Philippines:** This is a correct pair. "Caingin" is indeed a term used in the Philippines to refer to a type of shifting cultivation, often involving clearing forest land for agriculture.

*   **Option 2: Taungya - Myanmar:** This is also a correct pair. "Taungya" is a system of agroforestry, originating in Myanmar (Burma), where crops are grown alongside young trees, often as part of reforestation efforts. While not strictly shifting cultivation in the traditional sense, it involves land clearing and agricultural use in a cyclical manner.

*   **Option 4: Chena - Sri Lanka:** This is a correct pair. "Chena" is the term used in Sri Lanka to describe a form of shifting cultivation, involving clearing and burning vegetation for temporary agricultural use.
