The First Pivot Systems in Bangladesh

For decades, farmers relied on flood and canal irrigation sourced from groundwater – a labour-intensive method markedby high losses and uneven distribution. The new pivot systems introduce controlled, uniform water application for the first time. On-site training enabled local operators to quickly become familiar with the technology.

The introduction of center pivot irrigation marks an important milestone for a region shaped by agriculture. It demonstrates how innovative irrigation solutions can open new opportunities for farmers and shape emerging markets sustainably.
