At our farm, we’re pioneering a groundbreaking solution: a portable pivot irrigation system driven entirely by solar energy. This innovative setup spans 25 meters and features water-saving sprinklers designed to efficiently nourish crops with minimal water wastage. What sets our system apart is its mobility, powered by solar-charged motorcycle-like wheels, ensuring it can be effortlessly moved between fields.
The heart of our system lies in its solar-powered submersible pump, drawing water directly from its source. This not only ensures sustainability but also eliminates the need for external power sources, making our solution highly energy-efficient.
Compared to traditional drip irrigation methods, our portable pivot system offers unparalleled flexibility. It can irrigate densely planted crops and grasses that drip systems struggle with, and it operates without clogging, allowing the use of untreated dam or river water. Moreover, it surpasses flood and furrow irrigation by significantly reducing water usage and labor requirements.
In practical terms, our system covers an impressive 2 acres per day, effectively irrigating a wide range of crops including maize, tomatoes, onions, beans, and more. It’s even capable of nurturing delicate crops like fruit nurseries and pumpkins, as well as high-demand crops like spinach and fodder.
We’re not just developing technology; we’re committed to making it accessible. Targeting small-scale farmers, we’re refining our models to ensure affordability. Through a pay-as-you-go model, farmers can acquire our irrigation system with manageable monthly payments, easing the financial burden of upfront costs.
Join us as we continue to innovate and improve agriculture practices for small farmers everywhere. Our portable solar-powered pivot irrigation system isn’t just a solution; it’s a sustainable revolution in farming technology.
