This is an odd problem, and it'll probably end up having something to do with some tech I need to research, but when I try to irrigate land in Conquests (at least early on in the game), the irrigated land fails to yield extra food. Can anyone help me out with this?

If it's happening early in the game, but not later, it may just be that the despotism penalty is in effect. You may be aware of this, but the despotism penalty skims one food, gold or shield off of any tile producing 3 or more. So if you're watering grasslands in despotism, you get: 2 food (grass) +1 food (irrigation) - 1 food (despotism) = 2 food.
If you're not in despotism when it happens, there's some other problem.
