Best Answer

The irrigation system brought water to the fields to grow crops, allowing high and reliable food production in otherwise semi-desert country.

Warehouses provided a storehouse for harvested crops to be consumed throughout the year, rather than having to rely on seasonal crops which were unavailable for half the year.
