As a large part of land in Hawaii is rocky and mountainous, the state has little space in which to grow crops. Some areas are also covered with hard, black lava (熔岩) on which nothing can grow. Even so, Hawaii produces large quantities of farm products.      The volcanic (火山的) soil in the valleys and lowlands is very rich, and the warm climate makes it possible to grow crops all year long. Rainfall is plentiful on the northern and eastern sides of each island. Much of the land on the southern and western sides of each island receives too little rainfall for most crops to grow well, but in many of the places where rainfall is light, wells and mountain streams supply water for irrigation.
