The Aztecs practiced a system of farming known as chinampas, where they built artificial islands in lakes and marshy areas. These chinampas were used for growing crops such as maize, beans, and squash, and were highly productive due to the fertile soil and efficient use of water resources. This farming system helped support the large population of the Aztec Empire.
Both the Inca and Aztec civilizations practiced terrace farming, which involved creating flat platforms on hillsides for agriculture. This technique helped them utilize mountainous terrain for cultivating crops such as maize, potatoes, and beans. Terrace farming allowed both civilizations to increase their food production and support their growing populations.
