Secure your yields, completely independent of the grid and energy prices
Large-scale agricultural irrigation powered by nothing but the wind. Protect your crops, and your livelihood, from extreme droughts.
The risk
When the summer turns dry, your margins shrink
Climate change and prolonged heatwaves are forcing farms to irrigate ever more intensively. The problem: remote fields and leased farmland often have no electricity supply at all.
Having the utility extend the grid after the fact is expensive and rarely pays for itself. Diesel generators simply burn money every day: they are noisy, extremely maintenance-hungry, and their constant fuel bills swallow your entire margin. Without water you face devastating crop losses; with conventional pumps your running costs go through the roof.
For farmers
“Will this really work for my crops?” Why hesitating costs you money
Farmers have to weigh up every cent these days. It is entirely normal to hesitate at first about a wind-powered well pump if you have rarely seen one in your region. You will be asking yourself: does the wind really deliver enough water to save my fields?
Look at it pragmatically: which system is the safer business decision?
The risk of solar and diesel systems
Diesel prices swing unpredictably and generators tend to fail exactly when you need them. Solar arrays on remote fields, meanwhile, are an open invitation to vandalism and organised theft.
The security of a mechanical wind pump
Our pumps are not delicate electronics but heavy, near-indestructible industrial engineering. We have been building these systems for more than 40 years, finished in our iconic green and yellow livery.
More than 2,500 installations worldwide prove the point: as soon as the wheel turns in a gentle breeze of 4 m/s, water flows. You invest once in a long-lasting asset that supplies your farm with water free of charge, for generations.
The solution
The tireless life insurance for your fields
Our mechanical wind-powered water pumps lift groundwater from deep boreholes to the surface, reliably and around the clock. The system works off-grid and quietly in the background.
The buffer storage principle
Whenever the wind blows, the wind pump keeps topping up local water tanks, cisterns or earth basins on your own land.
Pressurised irrigation at no cost
From those reservoirs you feed your existing drip lines or sprinklers, ideally using the natural gradient (gravity) alone, so the whole system runs 100 % free of energy costs.
Robust storm protection
Even in heavy summer storms you never need to drive out to the field. The automatic storm protection turns the wheel out of the wind by itself, while the mechanical hand brake at the foot of the tower adds extra safety during maintenance.
For every farm
Performance tailored to your farming operation
Model W 4012 (the farming bestseller)
Our proven reference model for medium-sized farms, speciality crops and orchards. Dependable in daily, continuous use.
Models W 5015 & W 7018 (maximum flow rate)
Designed for very great depths and very large volumes of water. The ideal choice for large operations that need to make vast acreages crisis-proof.
Protect your harvest before the next extreme heatwave arrives
A precise site survey, the permit and the foundation for large-scale farm irrigation all need a little lead time. Get in touch now and your system will be standing in the field, ready to work, in good time for the dry months, safeguarding your yields.
