VivaCell-MTS, a subsidiary of “Mobile TeleSystems” OJSC, announces that owing to the Company’s AMD 44 million of financial support, 6 units of Zenith anti-hail systems were installed and tested in Karakert, Vanand and Tsakhalanj villages of Armavir region this year.
To remind, VivaCell-MTS has been implementing this project starting 2008. In two years, 9 remote control Zenith anti-hail stations were installed in She nik, Aygeshat, Berkashat and Shenavan villages of Armavir marz. The stations have proved to be 100% efficient. Besides the pure support in installing anti-hail stations, VivaCell-MTS also provides access to its major competitive advantage – wider 3G and GPRS/EDGE coverage, for the use in agricultural purposes. The installed equipment is operated by remote control order, basing on VivaCell-MTS’ network.
By making this considerable investment in rural communities VivaCell-MTS wants to reduce to the minimum the loss of harvest caused by the nature – the hail being translated into a devastating material damage.
“Agriculture is the most vulnerable sphere of the economy, where the output of hard work and considerable investment – the crops, can be swept away mercilessly by the nature just in several minutes. We should acknowledge that each of us is affected by this problem as this is a huge loss caused to the national economy. The diverse programs carried out by VivaCell-MTS stem from this approach. And ultimately, all what we are doing is aimed at creating conditions for better quality of life in our Homeland,” commented VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian.
The Zenith anti-hail stations have been fully developed and produced by Barva Innovative Center that uses local intellectual and production resources.
