Explanation

Slash and burn is a forestry technique, which involves cutting down trees and shrubs, on a large swath of land, allowing them to dry, and then setting a fire. It is a rapid and effective method for clearing a chunk of land, typically with the intention of converting it, for agricultural use. It does not characterize green revolution.
