Summary

Description
English: Wind powered pump on Oak Park Farm, Shedd, Oregon. This wind pump is used to remove water from tile line agricultural drainage system on flooded farm land. This pump is used to drain excess water from farm land to improve agricultural production. It operates a 28 inch diameter piston pump with a 16 inch stroke. It pumps 360 gallons per minute on an average windy day. This is the first large wind-powered agricultural pump in the U.S. and is a good example of modern technology being applied to an old, well-proven technology.
