In the Indus River Valley, they used salt water for crops. Over time, the amount of salt poisoned the land. It was too salty and people did have to find fertile land.

So, your answers should be...
A. People moved to more fertile regions of the subcontinent.
D. The soil became too salty for crops to grow.

I hope this helps!
