This is an updated and expanded new edition (formerly Water Pumping
Devices), surveying the water-lifting technologies that are
available and appropriate for smallholdings. It examines the costs
and general suitability of the different technologies to enable
farmers and policy makers to make informed choices.More than one
billion people still do not have access to safe drinking water, and
almost two billion people suffer from diseases arising from
contaminated water due to poor sanitation. Irrigation is essential
for the basic food requirements of billions of people. The growing
world population and global climate change make the challenges of
providing adequate clean water, sanitation, and food ever more
pressing. At the heart of effective irrigation lies the problem of
lifting or pumping water. This handbook provides a detailed review
of the water-lifting technologies available for irrigation, along
with new information covering the provision of drinking water for
humans and livestock. Water Lifting Devices has long been the
authority on the subject and this new third edition provides
updated essential practical information for farmers, development
workers, and all who need to make informed choices about water
lifting technologies.
