Hmm, yeah I'd say what we really need is for farmers to just pay for what the water should actually cost. If it means almonds and beef get more expensive, so be it. And before anyone tells Californians "just consume less", the problem is that California exports a lot of what is produced. I can't think of a better way to tell outsiders to consume less than to raise prices on exports.
