"What are the alternatives to slash-and-burn in the Indonesian uplands? Based on fieldwork conducted in 1997 in some 40 small regions throughout Indonesia, as well as an extensive literature review, "From Slash and Burn to Replanting," examines these alternatives. Economic and ecological changes in Indonesia, were critical during 1997 and 1998.
