Tavy farming is a traditional practice in Madagascar that involves burning and clearing of forests to create agricultural land. This practice has been used for centuries, but it has become increasingly difficult to stop due to the lack of alternative sources of income for the people who rely on it. Additionally, the government has been slow to implement policies that would discourage tavy farming, and the lack of enforcement of existing laws has made it difficult to stop the practice. Finally, the high demand for agricultural land in Madagascar has made it difficult to find alternative sources of income for those who rely on tavy farming.
