I wonder what the difference in total yield production is between burning the forest & sustainably farming with the thick-humid compost?

The first one got no choice but to cut and burn to gain fertility of soil.
The second one is, it doesn't need cutting down of tree because the soil is reach in natural fertility because the land has better soil than the first one.
