No, irrigation did not decrease the amount of food in Mesopotamia; in fact, it had the opposite effect. The development of irrigation systems in Mesopotamia allowed for more efficient and reliable water supply to crops, which led to increased agricultural productivity and surplus food production. This surplus food supported the growth of cities and civilizations in the region.
