- This one minute videeo shows how an irrigation device for small farming works. In Arabic called a shaduf or shadoof, in English a well pole or a sweep. Demotech made this shaduf in The Gambia in less then an afternoon to the great appriciation of the women who had to water their plantbed in this shared garden. Depth of well: about 6 meter.
A 5 minutes video will soon be added to this playlist with more technical details.

Please respond in English!
such a difficult method..
+someone Difficult compared to the tap in your home? Yes! But a blessing for these farming ladies in The Gambia!
***** yeah that's true! its also a blessing for me that I don't have to work out in the fields and can just simply get water from the tap like you said :)
@someone-wj2nd You rely on water from a tap and pay for a gym membership to workout, or simply let the muscles in your limbs become flaccid and your bones weak due to disuse. LOL, okay.
Typical Africa ...... 2 people doing the work ... and 4 people standing aside doing nothing. instead they could have installed a second shadoof and doubled the efficiency.
