← HistoryWhich outcome occurred when terrace farming's structural integrity declined, leading to increased surface runoff in Andean civilizations?
A)Reduced agricultural output downstream✓
B)Widespread decrease in land value
C)Enhanced mineral dissolution from soil
D)Amplified solar reflectance due to erosion
💡 Explanation
Reduced agricultural output downstream occurred because soil erosion due to decreased cohesion led to loss of topsoil and nutrients via increased surface runoff, therefore diminishing harvest yields, rather than the land value declining or mineral dissolution which could occur slower.
