Occurred climate change and incurvation of weather patterns globally brings unpredictable production in many economic sectors, especially agriculture, or closely in crop production. In this circumstances, rainfed crop production in many countries used to become old-fashioned system of production, while implementing irrigation tends to be reality that provides long-term food security and farms’ profit stability. The main goal of research is to economically justify the appliance of irrigation in conventional corn production at the farm level. In research used dataset corresponds to South Banat region in Serbia, while used method assumes calculation of contribution margin. Comparing the values of gross financial results gained in corn growing organized in similar production conditions, but with or without applying the irrigation, achieved results show its rise for almost six times after implementing the irrigation systems. Besides, overall profitability in rainfed corn production shows much higher sensibility towards the change in obtained incomes and variable costs.
