There are plenty of areas on the Big Island that use catchment water.
Not as much on the other islands.
Since the mid 80s when the volcanoes started this period of constant activity. Catchment water is loaded with metals and chemies that are not good for consumption.

That's when I stopped sailing to the big Island for winters, nice sunset colors but yuk air.
For ag use collected water should be fine.

I thought it nice of Baz to share his professional insight.
