Corn and soybeans can be grown in the western US, and corn is frequently grown in the vicinity of livestock operations such as feedlots. However, since most of the west is much drier than eastern parts of the nation, all crop production depends on irrigation. The money earned from corn and soybeans is, quite simply, considerably less than higher value produce crops. If a farmer can earn $500 per acre profit from a potato crop, for example, why would he limit himself to a $100 per acre profit growing corn? Many areas simply do not have access to sufficient water to irrigate a corn crop.
