How deep?
If it's like 100 to 200 feet, your looking at a submersible pump and a generator fit to drive it.
Say, 3000 euro?

Get the loan of a slurry tanker and park it up.

Brother is watering 21 weanlings here with an IBC tank on the back of an 8x4 trailer. Fills it every second day and it's never fully empty. You'd probably get two days out of it with 15. Top up tubs morning and evening or if you're handy hook up a JFC fast fill water trough to the back of it. Cheaper solution.

Drawing water in a big meal bin to an out farm, taking up most of my time but it's working.
