Department 3: Greenhouse Dismantling

The process of dismantling greenhouse crops begins with removing all plants. One person operates a trolley to cut the strings supporting the plants, while another gathers them from the ground and places them on foil or mats. After this phase, cleaning tasks are carried out, including vacuuming, sweeping and cleaning hoses and gutters. Additionally, used mats, known as “pampers,” are collected.

Once the plants are removed, preparations for new crops begin. This includes laying new foil on the ground, placing mats and installing water supply tubes for the plants. The mats are cut to enable proper irrigation for new seedlings.

Responsibilities:

• Cutting tomato and cucumber plants.
• Cutting support strings.
• Laying plants on foil.
• Sweeping or vacuuming the greenhouse.
• Cleaning pipes, hoses, and gutters.
• Collecting used mats and laying new ones.
• Installing and removing water tubes.

• Planting new tomato and cucumber seedlings.

• No contraindications to working in temperatures between 10°C and 27°C. Temperatures may be higher during spring and summer.
