History

Which result manifested when the Anasazi used terraced farming in arid canyons?

A)Increased water infiltration of the soil
B)Higher organic material decomposition rate
C)Elevated evapotranspiration from crop surfaces
D)Reduced soil aggregate structural stability

💡 Explanation

Terraced farming introduced an increased surface area which improved rainwater capture; this used gravity to allow increased infiltration. Hence, moisture retention increased because it used physical diversion rather than impacting decomposition.
