Manual pumps in Haiti

Manual pumps in Haiti ... there is a water reservoir that feeds a drip irrigation system downstream. At the moment a diesel pump is used to start the flow, which then continues by gravity. I was thinking that for such a small task a manual pump would make more sense. Is it easy to get one? And would it work you think?
