"Hey yeah, farmers should invest in irrigation equipment, it'll eventually pay for itself."

Sure, but we're totally ignoring water rights here. If your state has Appropriative rights, you can't just start watering fields without the government getting involved. In that case, you can't actually get new rights anymore, which has created a new market. I had to purchase mine from a winery nearly a decade ago and I STILL don't officially have rights yet.
