PanARMENIAN.Net – Chairman of the Agrarian-Peasant Union of Armenia
Hrachya Berberyan said that potato price at the local market is
expected to double in spring 2012 to reach AMD 350-400 per kilo.
This will be conditioned by the summer drought that resulted in loss
of 40% of the crops, according to him.
As to apricots, this year’s harvest totaled around 30-35 tons, what
is 50% more than in 2010. An increase was registered in apple and
peach production while the grapes yield was 20-30% more than last year.
