Innovation of the Week: Getting Water to Crops

After just two years of improved irrigation provided by a treadle pump, Robert Mwanza grew more than enough vegetables to feed his wife and eight children.

(DAKAR, Senegal) - Treadle pumps are foot-powered pumps that sit on top of a well and irrigate small plots of land. (Photo: IDE) In 1999, when he purchased his first treadle pump, Robert Mwanza, a farmer in Lusaka, Zambia, was struggling to make ends meet and without reliable access to water.

When a Christian, a Jew, a Hindu, a Buddhist, or an atheist comments a crime, he/she is “so and so” committed a crime…. Their religious affiliation is never mentioned.
