3 FAQs about [Solar system irrigation project Burkina Faso]

Can small-scale private irrigation help the Sahel region?

In the Sahel region, small-scale private irrigation is seen as a way of helping the most vulnerable people improve their incomes. This is what the EU IRRINN project set out to do in Burkina Faso. Some 40 market gardeners now benefit from solar-powered pumps, thanks to an innovative funding mechanism.

What is the irrinn project in Burkina Faso?

It was in this context that the IRRINN project was launched in Burkina Faso. It is coordinated by CIRAD, includes six other partners* and is funded by the European Union under its DeSIRA programme. IRRINN is developing farmer-led irrigation around Ouagadougou.

What irrigation techniques are used in Senegal?

Firstly, IRRINN tested a range of small-scale private irrigation techniques such as boreholes with submerged or surface pumps powered by solar panels or generators, micro-drip or drip systems, small concrete tanks (a technique used in Senegal) or large-diameter wells. Of those techniques, boreholes with submerged solar pumps proved most popular.
