Actually, the main crop that is quite profitable but requires vast amounts of water is not rice, but nuts, specifically Almonds.
I like almonds, but they kind of bind me up, you know? We make almond milk and add some flax oil and then use the almond pulp to make delicious cakes. It's better that way. If you put some ground flax seed in with the almond pulp, it makes you shit like a goose so it all works out.
I think the fact that I know these things is a sign I'm getting old. Oh well.
