3 Snippets on Agriculture Pumps India has approx. 39 billion hectares under irrigation Precision irrigation techniques require stable and predictable power supply to run irrigation pumps – this is were the key challenge lies Irrigation pumps powered by diesel India has 7 million irrigation pumps running on diesel Diesel is expensive Over last 10 years, 8% average price increase YOY In last 3-4 years, ~40 – 50% increase in price Diesel cost may represent 30% - 50% of the total value of grain produced Diesel limits overall output Most farmers can only afford to farm 2 crops (one rain-fed) Irrigation pumps powered by electricity In India, million irrigation pumps run on electricity India government has heavily subsidized electricity for irrigation - Farmers are financially addicted to it, but They often get electricity in the middle of night when it is often dangerous and not as productive They don’t know when, for how many hours, or how frequently they will be supplied with power – erratic power supply limits the kind of crop they can grow The power subsidy Govt provides is to the tune of INR 60,000 Cr annually

5 Supply Side Management Unreliable /Erratic power supply Poor quality of Power Non availability of Power Solar pumping solutions - the right option to support desired /adequate water requirement for agriculture needs /other domestic use, if needed. Grundfos Solar Pumping Solutions

6  Payback months based on area of farm; type of crop; method of irrigation (drip, sprinkler, etc.) Solar water pumps- value proposition Customer value proposition Results Reliance on Diesel 1  Diesel abatement  Opportunity to fully utilize land holding  Opportunity to cultivate cash crop Intermittent grid power  Ability to irrigate during the day and maintain soil moisture levels  Opportunity to fully utilize land holding  Opportunity to cultivate cash crop

7 Solar Water Pumps – Our approach Sustainable irrigation: A function of water Requires a detailed understanding of water sustainability Sources of water, yields, extraction levels Long term water availability Cropping patterns What we do Build Knowledge-base on crops, water, irrigation- Drip irrigation Match system selection to the requirements of every farm Ensure sustainability Water Output Depth of Source Inso- lation Solar Water Pump Design Result: 1)Prevents wastage of water thro oversized pumps and flood irrigation 2)Over exploitation of ground water is reduced 3)Avoid wastage of fertilizers - Reducing the input cost to farmer

8 Case stories

9 Irrigation Grundfos Solar Pumping Solutions Karnataka – Bijapur - Replaced 7.5 kw electric submersible pump Farmer’s Name – Haji Baba Crops : Sugarcane and Cash crops Pump supplied – Grundfos Solar pump SP 30-6 / 5.5 kw Working since Nov 2013 Total cost of installation: INR 10 Lacs Benefits 1) Crop yield has increased – Appx 20% 2) Gets water when he wants ie during daytime. 3) Due to this, fixed drip irrigation, resulting in maintaining the effect of nutrients in the root zone area. 4) Good control and saving of water. Savings : Previously incurred expense of 2000/- per day For 6 days a week: Rs 2000 X 6 = Rs 12,000/- Savings per year : ( 288 Days)= Rs 5.76 Lacs Water By converting flood irrigation into drip irrigation, saving of 2 labourers 250 per person. Rs 250 X2 X 288 days Savings on Manpower per year – Rs 1.44 Lacs. Pay back : less than 1.5 years.
