Greetings, List,
I'm looking for information on equipment required for pumping water from a
small stream that runs through our property. There are no legal problems
in taking the water. Would like to drip-irrigate about 2 acres. The
stream is just a leetle thing usually, but it changes to a
pretty strong stream with each passing storm here in west-central
AL, rising several feet. It does have a current all year long, though
it drops to a very low level in dead summer for a few weeks. Need to
lift the water about 10-15 feet and pipe it about 100 feet through
some woods to the field. I assume I'll need a filter (pretty sandy
creek-bottom) and a storage tank. I plan on talking to the guys at
Irrigation-mart eventually, but would appreciate any pointers
from y'all before I go there, as far as brands, experiences both good and
bad, etc.
Yipes, gotta go till the beans before those dark clouds get
here.
Thanks a lot,
Bill
