irrigation pumps
Crop hydration machines
Irrigation pumps are mechanical devices that move water from a source—wells, rivers, reservoirs—to agricultural fields or landscaping.
They range from small units for gardens to massive systems serving industrial farms.
The technology varies: centrifugal pumps for surface water, submersible pumps for deep wells.
The irrigation pumps ran all night to keep the crops from wilting.
