Inca farming significantly influenced the government by establishing a robust agricultural foundation that supported the empire's economy and social structure. The state implemented a system of collective farming, known as "ayllu," which ensured food security and allowed for organized labor. This agricultural surplus enabled the government to maintain control over vast territories, support military campaigns, and facilitate trade. Additionally, the management of agricultural resources reinforced the central authority of the Inca rulers, as they directed crop production and distribution to meet the needs of the populace and state.

The Inca were influenced by the Chavín's religion and the Wari's terraced farming.
Inca terrace farming is a form of agricultural technique developed by the Inca civilization in the Andes Mountains. It involves constructing stepped terraces on steep slopes with irrigation channels to grow crops such as corn, potatoes, and quinoa. This technique maximizes arable land and helps prevent soil erosion in mountainous regions.

They made techniques for farming.
The Inca civilization had highly advanced agricultural techniques such as terraced farming, irrigation systems, and crop storage that allowed them to produce food surpluses. The Aztecs also had sophisticated farming methods like chinampas (floating gardens), but they did not have the same level of agricultural productivity as the Inca.
all built terrances
The Inca built terraces to create flat agricultural land on steep mountain slopes. This allowed them to grow crops at high altitudes where farming would otherwise be challenging. The terraces also helped prevent erosion and retain water for irrigation.
