Specifications for a solar pump, with total head of water 45 feet

I have a challenge on Solar pumps, I have a shallow well of 15 feet depth and the distance from source is 30 feet to the top of the tank. In total the head of water is 45 feet. What should be the size of pump? How big should be the battery?

I want the pump to be installed on DC powered (solar), to be used for pumping water to my small farm where I have 120 chicken and twenty pigs.
