Which limitation increased risk during intensive chinampa farming?

💡 Explanation

Aquatic agriculture used chinampas involving canals; extensive irrigation led to upward salt migration via capillary action causing salinization. This decreased yields because increased salinity inhibits water uptake, therefore affecting crop growth rather than fertility declines or slope failures.
