Society
Ulaanbaatar, August 5, 2025 /MONTSAME/. The Governor's Office of the Capital City, in partnership with the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), will implement a USD-13-million comprehensive greenhouse farming project in Shuvuun Fabrik, located in Khoroo No. 13 of Khan-Uul District.
The project aims to establish a modern greenhouse farming infrastructure, including vegetable storage facilities, at the designated site.
Deputy Governor of the Capital City in charge of the Social Sector, Green Development, and Air and Environmental Pollution, Amartuvshin Amgalanbayar, stated, “Negotiations on this project began last year. Initially valued at USD 4 million, the cost of the project was expanded to USD 13 million based on Ulaanbaatar’s vegetable demand as well as joint research and meetings with international organizations.”
Currently, 89 entities and 445 individuals operate greenhouse farms on a total of 50.1 hectares across the capital city’s nine districts—winter greenhouses on 23.5 hectares and summer greenhouses on 26.6 hectares. While annual demand for vegetables in Ulaanbaatar city is estimated at 60,000 tons, only 2,500–3,400 tons are harvested annually.
To meet domestic demand, an additional 20 hectares of smart winter greenhouses are needed. Within the new project, 50 hectares of winter greenhouses will be established, enabling an annual harvest of 16,500 tons, sufficient to meet the capital city’s needs.
At
present, Khan-Uul District accounts for 16 hectares or 32 percent of the city’s total
greenhouse farming area.
