Treadle pump is a zero-energy water lift pump that works on the principle of simple stepping motion. This pump is a manually operated suction pump that draws water from pond or well by the process of by stepping up and down on a treadle. These pumps are most suitable for our Islands to provide small scale lift irrigation facilities without using any external energy. Hence, it runs without electricity and zero operational cost, which makes the treadle pump suitable for marginal farmers. For a typical marginal farmer, problems like suction of water, lifting of water, transporting water and irrigating their plot can be easily solved by treadle pump. It can be used for any application where pumping of water is necessary, in case of sudden power cuts, load shedding etc.
