"50% environmental" - This term is very deceptive. It's basically water that can't be used anyway, and clouds the fact that really agriculture uses 80-90% of the actually available water. It artificially grows the denominator.

That's untrue. It's freshwater that is purposely diverted to streams and rivers to sustain the local ecology. This is what farmers are complaining about in the Central Valley.
