There are quite a few dryland crops. The rice usually used for Risotto, in this case Arborio, is not one of them.
I’m pretty sure that even if you grew Arborio as a dryland that you couldn’t sell it as Arborio because of DOP. Which would change its flavor, probably its starch balance, and decrease its price.
This administration has the moral integrity and intelligence of the average reality TV series. Just a bunch of intellectually stunted teenagers.
