Why did early Native Americans most likely irrigate their crops?
A. Water could only be found in arroyos in the southwest?
B. They knew that European crop yields were high and wished to imitate European farming practices
C. Rainfall was not plentiful enough for the crops to grow naturally
D. Native Americans had not yet domesticated livestock

Respuesta :

Most were in or around the deserts. so C would be the answer most likely

Most likely, early Native Americans irrigated their crops. For the crops to organically grow, there was not enough rainfall. We have begun to speculate about agriculture before Columbus as farmers prepare to plant their seeds north of the equator.

Native Americans were mostly hunters and gatherers, according to conventional thinking. When they did agriculture, they had to clear new fields since their slash-and-burn methods depleted the soil.

Thus, Option C is correct.

What were Native Americans' cropping techniques?

The success of Native American agriculture is undeniably corn. The plant was domesticated in Mexico and Central America thousands of years ago and was a staple of the American diet before becoming the greatest crop in the world today (global production in 2009 was 819 million metric tons).

According to Jane Mt. Pleasant, an associate professor of horticulture at Cornell University, locals' agricultural prowess has been underappreciated despite the fact that they also developed the incredibly fruitful "three sisters" companion-cropping strategy.
