In the first quarter of the year alone, thousands of hectares of new land were reclaimed.

The South Hwanghae Provincial Tideland Reclamation General Enterprise built more than 15,000 meter-long dike in March to complete the first dam construction in the third and fourth districts of the Ryongmaedo Tideland, thus acquiring over 3,600 hectares of new land.

The South Phyongan Provincial Tideland Reclamation General Enterprise set the position of the closure embankment in a rational way and introduced diverse construction methods into the Ansok Tideland reclamation.

Now, it acquired over 1,400 hectares of arable land and made a breakthrough in hastening the tideland reclamation.

Meanwhile, the North Phyongan Provincial Tideland Reclamation General Enterprise, which obtained a thousand and several hundred hectares of new land by completing the first dam construction in the first district of the second-phase project for reclaiming the Honggondo Tideland last year, has successfully blown up 50,000, 150,000 and 250,000 cubic meters of earth.
