Dry farming is beneficial to WA's economy because it is a sustainable agricultural practice that allows farmers to grow crops without the need for irrigation. This is particularly important in regions where water resources are limited or where irrigation costs may be high.

Additionally, dry farming can help to improve soil health and reduce erosion, contributing to the overall sustainability of agriculture in Washington State.
