Which crop productivity risk arose for Incan terrace farms when intensive irrigation leached soil?

💡 Explanation

Incan irrigation systems often overwatered terraces, causing selective macronutrient depletion because the nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium wash out, resulting in specific fertility loss rather than terrace failure; hence, 'C' is correct.
