C. Irrigation is often necessary for farming in dry areas.

Explanation: Much of the Middle East is arid or semi‑arid, so agriculture relies heavily on irrigation (from rivers, wells, and modern irrigation systems). Fertile land is limited, economies are often not primarily agricultural, and common crops are things like wheat, barley, olives, citrus and dates rather than berries and potatoes.
