Which constraint limited maximum chinampa size by necessity for cultivation during the Aztec empire?

💡 Explanation

When plotting out chinampa fields, walking distance limited the size because manual labor of farmers and transportation determined yield, and prolonged transit reduced effective cultivation time. Therefore daily distance limited size, rather than freshwater access, depletion, or material as these were generally uniform across the lake region.
