This is just speculation, more like a "if someone figures it out". We don't have working fusion yet anyway. Fusion does produce radiation, which can be used to split additional water. Or maybe this might be impossible with a fusion reactor setup. Normally the radiation is used to heat water and convert it into steam to drive a turbine. But specifically to grow food, hydrogen production could be more efficient. Say in a space colony too far away from the sun.
Otherwise, light and photosynthesis will basically always be the most efficient to grow calories for sustenance.
BTW there is also the concept of aneutronic fusion to directly generate electricity without steam turbines.
