Whether it's worth capturing depends on how much water is worth. At 100x it's very hard to have a water price low enough that growing tomatoes is cost effective but high enough that it's worth putting in this kind of effort to recapture 1% of the water from their production.
(Part of the problem here of course is that agricultural water is rarely traditionally "priced")
