It has helped plants grow by providing energy for the process of photosynthesis to occur. Photosynthesis is the way plants convert inorganic resources, such as sunlight, water, carbon dioxide, and minerals, into organic resources that the plant can use. The sun makes farming possible. It brings life to our farms and allows us to grow crops.<\/p>\n<p>The sun does not stop there. It also gives us energy.\u00a0 We get energy through the use of photo-voltaic solar cells which convert light energy into electricity. Solar energy has enabled us to light our homes, heat water and the most important\u2026it allows us to pump water.<\/p>\n<p>One new solar water pump that is improving the lives of small holder farmers in Kenya is the Maji Pump (MajiPump \u2122). The Maji Pump Solar Kit is both cost effective and easy to install making it a reliable solar water pump to have in your farm and home. Once installed,\u00a0 the Maji Pump can pump water for free. It does not incur recurring expenses associated with electricity, petrol or diesel fuel.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5176\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5176\" style=\"width: 418px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5176\" src=\"https:\/\/graduatefarmer.co.ke\/marketplace\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/maji-pump.jpeg\" alt=\"majipump\" width=\"418\" height=\"313\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5176\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Maji Pump front view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The Maji Pump has the following features;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Quick payback, within one growing season.<\/li>\n<li>A high flow rate of 2,160 Liters per Hour.<\/li>\n<li>15-20 years pump lifespan.<\/li>\n<li>Portable.<\/li>\n<li>Direct solar power.
