Burma image, WA0313. [Terraced field for paddy cultivation.] (Researcher's notes in brackets)
In the Kachin hills it was relatively uncommon to find terraced cultivation - typically Kachin people would employ slash-burn methods of cultivation. However, the Lachik [Lashi] and the Gauri peoples were known to engage in terraced farming.
*****The Gauris in addition to their yi [slash-burn cultivation sites] work terrace cultivation. The terraced fields were taken from the Palaungs who were driven out of these hills in the past. They do not prepare new terraces themselves but occasionally hire Chinamen to do so. The ownership of terraced fields is similar to that of the Lashi. [dissertation, 1934:288]
