← HistoryWhat primary outcome resulted across ancient Samaria from silt deposition within irrigation canals?
A)Regional agricultural output decreased.✓
B)Crops experienced rapid over-watering.
C)Erosion near river banks lessened.
D)Groundwater salinity levels declined.
💡 Explanation
Silt accumulation increased channel roughness, thereby raising water levels due to reduced flow capacity. Because canal beds aggraded, therefore irrigation reliability was undermined during crucial growth stages, rather than leading to a favorable outcome for crop production.
