History

Which outcome accelerated soil exhaustion during the early European maize cultivation?

A)Monoculture without crop rotation
B)Incorporation of terrace farming
C)Extensive use of chinampas
D)Careful water management strategies

Monoculture lacked crop rotation, the mechanism being nutrient depletion because continuous maize cultivation depleted specific soil nutrients without replenishment. Therefore, soil exhaustion increased faster rather than sustainable diverse methods mitigating nutrient loss.
