Guide for field crops in the tropics and the subtropics / (Washington, D.C.: Office of Agriculture, Technical Assistance Bureau, Agency for International Development, ), by Samuel C. Litzenberger and United States. Agency for International Development. Office of Agriculture (page images at HathiTrust) Vegetables for the hot, humid tropics. Shifting cultivation (slash and burn agriculture) is a traditional cropping system that was once widely practiced throughout the humid tropics. Due to increasing population pressure on land, the system is now mainly confined to the dense forest areas of the Amazon Basin, Central and West Africa, and Southeast Asia.

Perennial Staple Crops are basic foodstuffs that grow on perennial plant sources of protein, carbohydrates, and fats can be harvested non-destructively – that is, harvest does not kill the plant or prevent future : Eric Toensmeier. The ICRISAT Village Level Studies were initiated to enhance the availability of reliable household, individual and field-specific, high-frequency time-seriesdata in purposively selected villages in the semi-arid and humid tropics of South Asia.

Multiple cropping, or growing of several crops on the same land, is an old practice for crop production in the humid tropics.

Multiple cropping in Asia is often built around a summer (or wet season) crop of rice. This rice is grown in (a) irrigated or rainfed paddies where the water can be impounded, or (b) under upland conditions where water is not impounded.2 On paddy land, the first or summer crop is nearly always rice.
Tropical agricultural systems. While a number of major agricultural systems have been identified in the humid tropics with which cattle are associated (see Beets, ; FAO, a; McDowell and Hildebrand, ; Ruthenberg, ; Spedding, ) this book is concerned only with the perennial crop cultivation (see Table 1), plantation or tree crop farming system (see Figure 1), and.
