12v pump to run irrigation

I have some pastures that I need to get some water on (dry season here in Florida.) The location has no water or power source, so I need to run some IBC totes out on a trailer with a portable 360 degree sprinkler and let it run for a few hours and bring them back to refill.

What are you using for a transfer pump that can run continuously on 12v and deliver enough volume and pressure to drive a sprinkler head delivering 10 GPM?

Another option would be to run the pump on my generator but if something 12v exists I would prefer it. This is a short term fix, I am working on bringing water lines out to this area but it will take some time given other priorities. Thanks in advance
