Karoo Risks Contractors Plan For
- Flash floods. Pumps and pipes near riverbeds can be washed away, so removable or raised intakes are worth discussing.
- Dry river spells. Rivers may stop flowing for long periods, so a borehole or dam backup often comes up.
- Grit in the water. Sand pumped after rain wears impellers and seals faster than clean water.
- Long drives. Contractors prefer to bring parts for the likely faults on the first trip.

Agricultural Irrigation Laingsburg FAQs
How can I protect a river pump from floods?
Options include a pump on a skid or trolley that can be pulled back, a raised pump house or a floating intake. A contractor can say what suits your riverbank.
Why does my pump wear out so quickly?
Sand and silt are common causes, along with running dry or cavitating at low water. A screened intake and a correct suction setup help.
Is a traveller suitable for Karoo fodder lands?
It suits irregular or scattered lands and can be towed between them. It needs a higher-pressure pump than most sprinkler systems.
