The Black Saturday bushfires in Australia in February 2009 primarily affected dense eucalyptus forests, which are common in the region. The fires burned through a variety of vegetation types, including grasslands, shrublands, and some agricultural areas. The intense heat and dry conditions led to widespread destruction of native flora, significantly impacting the biodiversity and ecology of the affected regions. In total, over 450,000 hectares of land were burned, resulting in long-term ecological consequences.

What are slash and burn cultivation and shifting cultivation?

Slash and burn cultivation is where you cut down the vegetation, burn it, and then plow it into the ground. This typically gets used where most of the nutrients are tied up in the existing vegetation and the soil is nutrient poor - such as in rainforests. Shifting cultivation is a form of agriculture, used especially in tropical Africa, in which an area of ground is cleared of vegetation and cultivated for a few years and then abandoned for a new area until its fertility has been naturally restored. The two are clearly related, but in the case of slash and burn, the land is farmed until the nutrients are depleted. Also in slash and burn, the ground is usually extremely nutrient poor until the vegetation is burned and plowed into the ground. Slash and burn is a typical method used in shifting cultivation but not all shifting cultivation uses slash and burn.
