A method called slash and burn was used where they clear the land by burning it down and when it was no longer fertile they would move somewhere else and allow the land to grow back.
Well today yet again the amazon rain forest is used for farming, mining, getting paper and more.
Rain forests can make traditional farming methods challenging due to poor soil quality, rapid leaching of nutrients, and the dense canopy limiting sunlight access for crop growth. However, sustainable agricultural practices such as agroforestry and slash-and-burn techniques have been used successfully by indigenous communities within rain forest regions for centuries. Modern farming methods, such as vertical farming or hydroponics, can also be adapted to thrive in rain forest environments.
Slash and burn

A method called slash and burn was used where they clear the land by burning it down and when it was no longer fertile they would move somewhere else and allow the land to grow back.
Farming is possible in rainforests, but it can be challenging due to the wet climate, high humidity, nutrient-poor soils, and rapid decomposition of organic matter. Some traditional Indigenous farming practices, such as slash-and-burn agriculture or agroforestry, have been used successfully to cultivate crops in rainforest regions.
Slash and burn method
The farming method in question is IRRIGATION.
What methods are used in Italy for farming
a drought
Frequent rain causes the soil in former rain forests to deplete so quickly after they are used for farming.
ha I have the same question for my homework too. the answer is ... 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.
