(1) There are over 600,000 pumping systems 
used for irrigation on agricultural land in the United 
States, many of which still rely on fossil fuels.

tural irrigation pumping systems can save farmers 
and ranchers more than $1.8 billion annually in en-
ergy costs. 
(4) Pumping systems play a central role in the 
watering of livestock and the management of animal 
waste in every State. 
(5) Pumping systems are a critical component 
of the Nation’s $2,300,000,000 aquaculture indus-
try.

tems used in raising livestock and fish can signifi-
