This is because water usage is not priced, and that we wasted water in the most inefficient manner. Land is cheap, sun is free, and water is effectively free.

Land is cheap, sun is free, and water is effectively free. We could switch to aquaponic, which is water and land efficient, but that's expensive.

Again, China has a similar problem, and they import food... because the economics of that solution just don't work unless the rest of the world agrees (and they won't).
