NEVER IN THE PAST 50 YEARS
Azat Artsakh--Nagorno Karabakh Republic (NKR)
14-04-2004
The cold weather in the republic in the past week caused great damage
to agriculture, especially the private farmers. Vladimir Zakiyan, head
of the department of land farming of the NKR Ministry of Agriculture),
touched upon this problematic matter. - For many years already I have
been working inthis sphere and such a situation, i.e. frost in April,
has not occurred in the past 5 decades. Of course, there were cases
when the temperature fell to zero degree but 7 degrees below zero is
an exceptional phenomenon. If you remember the temperature before the
frost was high, 22-25 degrees. Early blossoming trees, pear, peach,
apricot trees were damaged from too low temperature on these days. The
vineyards were "provoked" by early warm weather and then were
completely frozen.
