Customer Background

Water shortage in agricultural irrigation

The customer operates a medium-sized farm that grows corn and sorghum, and is always constrained by a lack of water. Due to the tight water supply in the area, he wanted to build his own well to solve his irrigation problems. He had already contacted several drilling service providers, but due to the high cost, he decided to purchase a water well drilling rig and do the work himself in order to reduce his long-term operating costs.
