Which administrative aim of colonial rule is clear from restrictions on shifting cultivation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Controlling mobile land use to establish stable revenue and administrative surveillance

The colonial government restricted shifting cultivation because cultivators moved to another plot after a few years. This made land surveys, fixed revenue collection, and official monitoring difficult. Settled cultivation and fixed villages were easier for the administration to tax and control. Wildlife regulation was a separate aspect of forest policy, so option B is not correct. Exam tip: link restrictions on shifting cultivation with stable revenue, surveys, and control.
