Abstract

Water pumping to small communities and irrigation systems for agriculture has been gaining ground and becoming a reality in several regions of Brazil. In this work the theoretical calculation of the power for a photovoltaic pumping system required to raise 3,500 L of water at a total manometric height of 22 m was carried out. With these data it was simulated application of the same for the production of coriander. For the hydraulic power in question a power of 173 Wp is required. With this power of the photovoltaic system it would be possible to produce 1,800 kg of coriander and obtain an income of R$ 2,700.00. These data demonstrate that the application of this technology in family agriculture would provide an extra income, while allowing the production of the crop throughout the year
