After 10 days of implementation, the center completed packaging 160 kg, each of which weighs 250g (including 640 bags) divided into 3 batches to send to people affected by the recent storm No. 3 (Yagi). For the convenience of people’s use, each bag has instructions for use. Accordingly, dry probiotic powder can be used in 3 ways: mixed with water to spray polluted areas, mixed with 20 liters of water for bathing or washing, or sprinkled directly on organic waste for quick treatment.
