Our windmill stopped pumping between May and June 2017: the lack of this critical source of farm water was not particularly felt in Luntian Farm because 2017 was a quite wet year, and rain relatively abundant.
It proved however difficult to come up with a viable strategy to repair it. In November, we reached for Roman who lives in Gapan, the nearby municipality, but has roots in Lambakin. Roman has experience in windmills and recently built one in the province of Nueva Ecija.
In January 2018, after replacing shaft, lubricant case and pinion gear, the windmill wheel began pumping water again.
