150 hectares lands out of 672 hectares of Aghitu community in Syunik
marz are autumn sowing areas and 210 hectares are spring sowing areas
of barley and spelt.
Hrachik Hayrapetyan, regional head claims that peasants took
agricultural credits to sow their lands.
But at present they don't have any expectations to get rich harvest
and repay their debts because of the regional aridity. It is noteworthy
that it hasn't rained for two months.
According to the Sisian meteorological centre the air temperature
surpassed the normal index. No rains fell in June and the temperature
went up by 5 degrees. The grain cultured plants are already yellowing
because of the high temperature and absence of humidity. Many fields
cannot be reaped at all because of the corn shortness.
The on-going aridity may have serious outcome on the regional
budget. The regional heads are also concerned about the cattle
preservation. The on-going aridity may arouse the problem of fodder
accumulation. The pastures deprived of humidity have their negative
impact on the milk-yield index. Bee-keeping is also in terrible state
in Sisian.
