The Irrigated Farm is a direct upgrade of the Farm which allows for a Water pipe connection in order to irrigate crops when there is insufficient rainfall to prevent growth stoppage. It should be noted that when compared to Farm, this variant has the same growth times and yield in each recipe, but effectively increases throughput by a variable amount due to preventing growth stoppage. It will still grow crops without an external Water source or when one runs dry, but these added benefits are lost. The Irrigated Farm can also apply Fertilizer imported via either Vehicles or Pipe connection to replenish Fertility.

An Irrigated Farm needs to have at least 0.9 layers of Dirt below each occupied tile, for one to be able to place the building.

The recipes assume that only a single crop is planted in the growth cycle, and that the fertility is set to 100%. Sugar cane, fruits, and poppy, cannot be planted in the irrigated farm.
