Au Viet Farm dismantles 14,000 m² of greenhouse to reduce damage

Despite the high cost, Au Viet Farm Cooperative (Phu Thai Commune, Hai Phong City) decided to dismantle the entire roof of the greenhouse to limit damage when the storm comes.

The entire roof of Au Viet Farm Cooperative's greenhouse has been dismantled to reduce damage.

By the morning of July 22, Au Viet Farm Cooperative had proactively dismantled the entire 14,000 m² of membrane roof to minimize damage and ensure safety before storm No. 3 (storm WIPHA) made landfall.

Mr. Bui Van Duy, Director of the cooperative, said that the unit had previously urgently harvested more than 5 tons of melons along with a large amount of bell peppers and cherry tomatoes. Currently, there is still more than 1 ton of melons that have not yet reached harvest time and are carefully covered.

Au Viet Farm is one of the large-scale melon growing cooperatives in the region.

There are still more than 1 ton of unharvested melons carefully covered.

Immediately after the storm, the cooperative will hire workers to reinstall the entire roof of the greenhouse. The cost of dismantling and reinstalling is estimated at about 50 million VND.

In 2024, storm No. 3 ( Yagi ) completely collapsed 27,000 m² of the cooperative's greenhouse, causing damage of nearly 10 billion VND. After this incident, the cooperative only had time to recover and rebuild 14,000 m² to maintain production.
