This video comes to us from the Full Belly Project and shows a mobile solar pump system to take advantage of small streams and other water sources to provide watering for livestock in small pastures. It includes a solar panel on what looks like a 2-wheeled cart, some piping and a pump. A team of designers, including Duncan Edwards and Jock Brandis, Full Belly’s Director of Research and Development, created this set up to help farmers who have off-farm jobs and need reliable, cost-effective solutions so that they can continue farming.
