Technical documentation for the construction of the Verba-1 peat enterprise for the production of lump and milled peat has been ordered.
The enterprise began to extract milled peat for the needs of the Mizotsky sugar factory and lump peat as fuel for sale to the population. Complexes of UMPF machines worked on extraction of milled peat.
In the village of Smiga, Dubensky district, the first stage of a semi-briquette plant was built and 5.4 thousand tons of semi-briquettes were produced. Extraction of raw materials in the peat extraction fields was carried out mechanized by BPF-2M peat extraction combines, the most advanced at that time.
A technical project for the new peat massif "Stupno" has been prepared to provide milled peat to: "Mizotsky Sugar Factory", agriculture and lump peat to residents of Dubenskyi and Zdolbunivskyi districts.
Peat enterprise "Verba-1" was renamed to "Smyzke peat enterprise".
"Smyzke Peat Enterprise" became part of the Rivne Peat Association.
Reconstruction of the semi-briquette plant was carried out with an increase in capacity by one and a half times - from 40 to 60 thousand tons of products per year. And in 1983, the peat enterprise exceeded the plan and achieved a record annual production volume of fuel semi-briquettes in the amount of 81 thousand tons. for a year.
It was reorganized into the "Smygatorf" production site, and later in 1990, the Smyzky branch for peat extraction and processing was created as a structural unit of the "Rivnetorf" enterprise.
In connection with the depletion of reserves in the peat massif "Stupno", work began on the preparation of the peat deposit "Starniki" for peat extraction near the village. Maidan of the Duben district, Rivne region.
On its own, the enterprise built a narrow track 22 km long to the "Maidanska" section of the "Starnyki" deposit and began mining of milled peat with MTF ortho-mining machines in a complex with MTZ-82 wheeled tractors on a pneumatic drive, which at that time was practiced only at this enterprise.
The enterprise was decided to terminate the legal entity of the Smygatorf subsidiary of the Rivnetorf State Enterprise by joining the Rivnetorf SE.
LLC "LAND GROW" became the winner of the auction conducted through the electronic public procurement system ProZorro., regarding the privatization of the State Enterprise "Rivnetorf". The record-breaking auction for the sale of a peat enterprise during martial law became an example of the courage and bravery of Ukrainian business to participate in such auctions and invest in the economy of Ukraine.
