They built terraces on the mountainsides.
The Incas built agricultural terraces called "andenes" to increase farmland. These terraces were constructed on steep slopes to create flat surfaces for farming and prevent erosion. Additionally, the Incas utilized irrigation systems to efficiently water their crops and increase agricultural productivity.
By constructing terraces on hillsides and mountain slopes.
The Incas increased farmland through terrace farming, where they built stepped platforms into hillsides to create flat areas for crops. This allowed them to cultivate land at higher elevations where they wouldn't typically be able to grow crops due to the steep terrain. They also developed irrigation systems to bring water to these terraces, enabling agriculture in arid regions.

Mesopotamia had a harsh climate, very fertile farmland and used irrigation extensively to increase production.

The changes in diet that the earth's population could make to reduce the increase of farmlands is to resort to foods that are not grown. Seafood would be the logical choice to avoid farmland produce.

They allowed the conquered people to keep their religous beliefs.
The Incas used a system of canals, ditches, and terraces to irrigate their farmland. They constructed intricate networks of channels to capture and distribute water from rivers and springs to their crops. This advanced system allowed them to cultivate crops at different altitudes and in diverse climates.
Dams are built to generate electric power, to create a body of water for irrigations of farms, for recreational uses, for erosion control (small dams), but in most cases decrease the area of farmland.
