Water Needs Assessment and Agricultural Loss Survey for 2021-2022 Raining Season/Crop Year
The results of this survey may lead to additional assistance being made available to Sonoma County Producers.
Water Needs Assessment
As the drought conditions in Sonoma County continue, it is important for our water suppliers and county leadership to have a clear understanding of the current and projected water needs of our community. This short survey will help inform them on water demand to ensure the agricultural community has enough water supply for their livestock and business needs. Please help inform us as to the needs of our agriculture industries with respect to water and water hauling.
Note: This additional water hauling needs assessment survey is voluntary and your individual responses will not be publicly shared.
