What is Degradation of Soil Nutrients and Slow Recovery of Biomass Following Shifting Cultivation in The Heath Forests of Sarawak, Malaysia about?
The study investigates the degradation of soil nutrients and slow biomass recovery in heath forests of Sarawak, Malaysia, following non-traditional shifting cultivation. Results indicate significant decreases in soil pH, cation exchange capacity, and nutrient concentrations over 7-14 years post-abandonment, with limited biomass accumulation observed. The findings suggest that high leaching rates and erosion in sandy soils hinder soil fertility recovery, emphasizing the need for careful management of shiftin
