Abstrakt: The soil pH gradually decreased along with the fallow period due to the fact that the fast-growing tree species after shifting cultivation absorb the bases from the soil (Tanaka I et al i . It was also indicated that BD influenced mainly the 0-10 cm soil layers, but not the 10-20 cm soil layers (Table 1) because the land-preparation for shifting cultivation was done on the surface soil layer. Our study demonstrates that traditional shifting cultivation system influenced soil properties and vegetation because this system generated particular soil physiological properties and species composition, species diversity, and stand structure (Fig. Keywords: Shifting cultivation; Traditional knowledge; Fallow stands; Soil properties; Vegetation; Bago Mountains; Myanmar EN Shifting cultivation Traditional knowledge Fallow stands Soil properties Vegetation Bago Mountains Myanmar 655 664 10 11/11/21 20211001 NES 211001 Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at https://doi.org/10.1007/s10745-021-00255-8.
