Many farms in Africa are turning to renewable energy solutions to reduce electricity costs and ensure a reliable water supply. Flowatt 90V 1100W Solar Deep Well Pump provides an efficient and sustainable solution for livestock watering and pasture irrigation, even in remote areas without grid access.
Background:
Amina’s Farm is located in the central highlands of Kenya and has 80 dairy cows. The farm needs to provide water for the cows daily and irrigate pasture. Previously, they used a traditional electric pump, costing around 18,000 KES (~$140) per month, with even higher expenses during the dry season when water demand increased.
