There’s an APP for that! The APP (Affordable Pressure Pump) offers poor dry-season farmers in Myanmar the convenience, safety, and flexibility of a Pressure Pump at the cost of a Suction Pump. To simplify the existing IDE Pressure Pump, we created a single valve design that fits into the standard head. The product is more affordable and robust, with 52 fewer parts and a $10 reduction in retail price. It enables users who otherwise could not afford a Pressure Pump to increase their annual income by $138.
