Which outcome commonly resulted when Mesoamerican chinampa agriculture increased soil salt?

💡 Explanation

Increased soil salt stunts crop growth because it creates an osmotic imbalance reducing water uptake, therefore impacting maize cultivation rather than altering farm stability; increased salinity impairs nutrient availability.
