It's three times heavier than normal eyes.damage to crops in various facilities

The heavy snow also caused damage to farms, including damage to greenhouses and cold damage to crops.

In particular, it is a heavy 'wet snow' with a lot of moisture, so additional damage is also concerned.

Reporter Song Se-hyuk covered it.

The Baekdudaegan turned white due to strong snow.

Snow accumulated up to 20cm in the inland and mountainous areas of Gangwon-do, where a heavy snow warning was issued.

I shoveled it out and even mobilized a farm tractor, but I can't see the end due to the ever-stacking snow.

[Choi Don-sun / Daegwallyeong-myeon, Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do: It's turned into a wet snow, so it's hard to shovel or push. So it's kind of hard to clean up.]

The strawberries, which were in the midst of the last harvest, were buried in the cold snow and frozen solidly.

The greenhouse couldn't bear the weight of the snow, so it ripped everywhere and snow came in.

The warmer was operated, but it was not enough to prevent the damage.

[Choi Seung-hee / Strawberry farmer: If strawberries are covered in snow, they freeze and you can't sell them. We can't harvest.]

The sun protection facilities in the ginseng field are also in danger of collapsing due to a pile of snow.

This snow is a heavy wet snow with a lot of moisture. For this reason, there is a high risk that facilities such as greenhouses will be damaged if the snow is not removed in a hurry.

The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said the wet snow is three times heavier than ordinary snow and asked farmers to pay attention to preventing damage to facilities.
