Stepanakert, 16 April: The Ministry of Agriculture of the Nagornyy
Karabakh Republic [NKR] has prepared an agricultural sector
development programme for the period between 2006 and 2010, an
Arminfo correspondent has quoted the NKR minister of agriculture,
Vagram Bagdasaryan, as telling a news conference in Stepanakert today.
Bagdasaryan said that important components of the programme are
the development of seed growing using state-of-the-art scientific
technologies, as well as grape growing, livestock breeding, processing,
irrigation, etc.
Under the programme, the republic's needs for meat will be fully met
by 2010 (currently the figure stands at 48 per cent).
Also, grain production is expected to increase four to five times,
while grape production is expected to reach 22,000 tonnes [presumably
per year].
