Best Answer

Mesoamericans used a method called slash-and-burn agriculture, they cleared the land by cutting down trees and then burned the fallen trees because the ashes fertilize the soil then they planted crops and after a couple of years they abandoned that area and moved to a different part of the rain forest to repeat this process.
