Which consequence arises from over-intensive usage of chinampas?

💡 Explanation

Over-intensive farming of chinampas leads to exhaustion of minerals because continuous cropping extracts nutrients faster than natural regeneration via decomposition (Mineralization). Therefore, soil becomes infertile, rather than resisting erosion or evaporation due to plant cover.
