Which resource limitation primarily reduces crop yield stability within ancient chinampa field systems?

💡 Explanation

Increased salinity reduces productivity because osmotic stress and plant ion imbalance lead to impaired growth; therefore, yields suffer, rather than from predation alone which is mitigated by diverse planting and localized ecosystems and is not water quality related.
