Absolutely. Without irrigation, they would be able to produce very little.
low precipitation
Producers in the southwestern United States must use irrigation most of the time to raise crops, simply because, most of the time, there's insufficient moisture, without irrigation, to raise and produce crops. So the answer to this question is no.

Farmers in interior plains may need to use irrigation to supplement natural rainfall and ensure consistent water supply for their crops. The interior plains typically have lower rainfall levels, making irrigation necessary to support agriculture and maintain crop growth throughout the growing season. Irrigation can help farmers mitigate the risk of drought and optimize crop production in these regions.
