The statistical analysis below uses two significant factors in determining the drought
vulnerability for Region L. One is the USDA Risk Management Agency’s annualized insured
crop losses as a result of drought conditions during the ten-year period of 2002-2011 and the
number of drought vulnerable public water suppliers in Kansas from Table 3.25 from above. It
was determined that all counties in Region L have either insured crop loss and/or drought
vulnerable public water suppliers thus all counties are rated at least at a medium vulnerability
rating since agriculture is a major economic factor in most of the Region L counties and public
water supply is an essential service to all of the region.
The rating values of the two factors were divided by 50 percent to determine the total drought
vulnerability rating. The total drought vulnerability rating put all counties in either the medium,
medium-high or high category. Table 3.37 provides the factors considered and the rating values
assigned.
