← HistoryWhich outcome results when early maize cultivation practices degrade soil?
A)Depleted phosphate limits plant growth✓
B)Increased nitrogen fixation enhances fertilization
C)Potassium promotes disease resilience
D)Calcium carbonate precipitates extensively
💡 Explanation
Phosphorous depletion limits maize growth due to nutrient leaching, because early agricultural methods lacked soil replenishment strategies. Therefore, crops suffer nutritional deficiencies, rather than thriving due to NPK enhancements under traditional techniques.
