Yes, sea water can be desalinated to use for irrigation or drinking. It takes a lot of electricity to do this.
Some Middle East states already rely on these systems to provide their drinking water.

2. water from this process have only less amount of minerals
so we are suppose to add minerals to it. this is very expensive one
