Meet the User - U Ti Min Huang•Monsoon season: 2
acres of rice
•Dry season: ¼ acre of watermelons and onions (to survive, couldn’t irrigate more)
• Doubled his dry season plot with IDE/M suction pump last year
•Dreaming about further expanding his plot and sending his children to school

NeedHorizontal journey: from pump to plants
• 98% of pump users have no electricity
• 50% are women or teens
• 70% earn < $1/day (90% < $2)
• Avg. plot size < ½ acre (typically, 45x30 ft)

Implementation Plan – Leverage Existing IDE/M Infrastructure• production
facilities and outsourcing arrangements
• distribution network: demonstrators, agents, dealers, well drillers
![Page 15: Under Pressure [UP]](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062521/56816866550346895ddec88b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Impact On The User
• 2.5x plot size during dry season: 0.5 1.25 acres
• Sprinkler irrigation Higher value crops
• Popular in hilly areas for irrigating sloping plots
• Other applications, such as lifting water to storage tanks for irrigation and domestic use
Poverty Middle Class

Impact On The User (2) • 2x Annual Income:
$360 $760
• Bang For Buck = 15/1
• Profit + loan pay back at the end of dry season
• Total wealth of one pump is $840 (3 yr NPV @ 15%)
• 100,000 profitable businesses in 4 years
The UP650 will generate
$60 MILLION of new wealth in
Myanmar
