webfact Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 A major hailstorm in the Phu Kheaw district of Chaiyaphum, Thailand, caused extensive damage and led to the death of 21,000 chickens at a local poultry farm. The cost of destruction is preliminarily estimated to be over 3 million baht. As the storm hit, residents took refuge from large hailstones that caused damage to houses and infrastructure. Some areas, such as Pak Pang and Ban Kheaw districts, suffered severely, with over 50 homes destroyed in Ban Kheaw alone. Somsak Farm was amongst the worst affected where heavy damage to structures resulted in a power cut-off, leaving the chickens to die from heat without ventilation. Owner Kalya Waenthip (39), was left in distress with nearly the entire farm and livestock lost in the storm, accruing damages worth 3 million baht. At the moment, plans are being made to remove the dead birds and cool the remaining ones. The dead birds have been distributed amongst the locals for food, as a measure to handle the loss.

Yet again we have people reading only the headline and then asking questions which are answered if they bothered to actually read the report. Weird. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
