In India alone, there are more than 6 million diesel pumps. Research on the efficiency of these pumps, which was performed as part of the India-Terai development project, showed that big improvements in efficiency were possible. Technical adaptation resulted in a smaller engine that consumes 50% less fuel and is easier to transport. Improved motor pumps of 2.5 HP could yield as much water as traditional 5 HP pumps. Local industry in India has started to produce these new pumps.
