So far no worries but then we supply our own water and aren't subject to
urban water restrictions. We specifically bought this place because it had
good water. Our pastures are the problem - insufficinet feed to support the
number of cattle that we would normally in a non drought times.

Now careful with those "ocker" and "joker" appellations! We may call
ourselves that but it's not something we accept too well from furriners!

Water tanks wouldn't be enough to keep a veg garden going throughout a
drought if one is on water restrictions. It may help out a bit but not for
long.
