Which outcome results when ancient chinampa farmers neglected the seasonal maize stalk "bending"?

💡 Explanation

Increased fungal disease results because the mechanism of stalk bending promotes airflow, reducing humidity around maize. Therefore fungal growth is limited, rather than allowing moisture build-up leading to crop loss under poor ventilation.
