Which outcome commonly reduced potential chinampa yield during Aztec periods?

💡 Explanation

The *capillary action* mechanism drew subsurface water upward, depositing salts as water evaporated; this induced salinity prohibited optimal crop growth, because Aztec techniques to leach salts were limited, therefore the yield was decreased rather than increased by fertilization.
