Sheep-breeding has greatly developed in Gegharkunik since 2000. It
seriously reduced in the region in 1991 - 2000 as the fur wasn't well
realized. The restart of carpet making workshops in Sevan, Tsambarak
and Martuni contributed to the development of regional agriculture.
A marketing and sheep-breeding program on "the development of applied
arts" is being held in the region this year. It is initiated by
the organization "Corn - 96" under the patronage of "Oksfum" and
"Jersey" fund.
The program is aimed at the curtailment of poverty index in the
region. There is also a mention to create working conditions for
women who have got specialization of carpet makers.
The organization formed small sheep-breeding farms in the villages
Zovaber, Tsakhkunk and Semjonovka in order to resume Armenian
sheep-breeding. About 12 - 13 female sheep were given to each village
and the farms included in the program will be given grass and fodder
for these sheep. There will also have veterinary and cattle-breeding
services.
