The sun collects its rays from the breast of the mountain, continuing
paying attention to cool source, reminding attractive picture, we
were hurrying in order to reach the village of Ukhtasar in time,
the last settlement of our mission. On both sides of the road there
were the fields under the crop or harvested. The ear of the wheat
became for 10-15 cm high and attracted the passers-by. "It's well,
very well, the man did its work, and if the sky grants fine weather,
the next year there will be rich harvest.",- the deputy head of Askeran
region Armavir Galstyan thought loudly. The group of people was seen
far in the field, who were fighting against vermins, the government
gave means for this aim. In answer to our question, if there is enough
labour power, Mr A. Galstjan said that the struggle goes successfully,
that the army also is included in the process.
Under the descent view of mountain "the back of the camel" the village
of Ukhtasar spreaded, where the head of community Samson Mesropyan,
the first dweller of Ukhtasar,who, at fist, for a year, lived in
a wagon-house. By profession, he is an agriculturist. He was born,
lived and worked for long years in province of Armavir of the Republic
of Armenia. Firstly he worked as a head of field brigade. Then,
the chief agriculturist of sovkhoz in soviet times, after he was
the head of sovkhoz, ordinary biography inherent to soviet period.
After the collapse of Soviet Union, he became a farmer. In response to
the question,how it happened, that he turned out to be in Karabakh, he
explained that the meeting with Slava Avanesyan and Armo Tsatryan,who
come from Maraga village, changed his life in 2000. He came to Artsakh,
saw the territory under the bottom of the mountain of "the back of
camel", which reminded him the valley of Ararat,and learning that
the village would be founded here, he decided to live here. In 2001,
the construction of cottages for newsettlers began,in February 2002,
the people already lived in these cottages. Didn't he regretted,
coming to live here,-we asked. he answered, that on the contrary,
he regrets, that came here later. S. Mesropyan, who was appointed
the plenipotentiary representative in the village of Ukhtasar by the
administration of Askeran in 2002, he informes that in the first year
of foundation of the village, 13 houses were built and exploited, one
of them was built for the school. Today, about 40 families making up
220 persons live here.Generally, the young and growing families live
in the village. By the way, I must say that there are two families in
the village having many children, who wait for getting new college.In
eight- year school, there are about 43 children. The school has the
specialists with high education.The library is in the school. The
club will operate next year. The house with 3 rooms built next to
the building of school is also for school, with the aim, not to let
the lessons being held in two turn. Enough territory is given by
the Government, for building new typical building of school. The
construction must have began, but due to indefinite reasons, its
construction is being postponed. The head of the village community as
a specialist, speaks about the prospects of socio-economic development
with enthusiasm. Irrigation water line is layed through the upper
part of the village, it means that every acre of the land will be
cultivated. "After several years Ukhtasar will become real paradise,
the whole republic will be supplied with agricultural products. The
flow of the products coming from Armenia will be changed in opposite
direction.",- Mesropyan said.Only 10 percents of available lands are
used with purpose. The dwellers of the community are provided with
privatized plots. Newly settled 12 families will get their plots soon.
The leader of the community made a remark, that the majority of
dwellers are not used to use the land correctly and with purpose, but
slowly they learn and adapt to new, but excellent land and climatic
conditions. The village is provided for excellent drinking source
water.Electrical supply is constant. The gasification is needed much,
the main gas pipe is within 4 km from the village. The village will
be gasificated in 2010. The problem of water supply was resolved in
2008-09, when the water pipeline coming from canal named "Sovietarkh"
was constructed, and the loss of the water, which was about 60%, made
up 0%. It was a big present for the people of Ukhtasar from the side
of the Government of Artsakh. We must not forget to mention that
the family of S. Mesropyan also create something. His wife Shoushik
Gevorgyan, daughter Tatevik are the specialists with high education,
they teach first - Geography, the latter- Armenian language and
Literature, but it does not forbid them to plant the tree, to keep the
cattle. Everyone has its own contribution in family budget. "I see,
that Karabakh needs experienced agriculturists. The land is very
fruitful here, the qualitable-mechanical composition is wonderful,
weather conditions are nearly subtropical.In the valley of Ararat
the grape vines, on the eve of winter,are covered with land and are
opened in spring, but this difficult work is excluded here. There
are excellent conditions for growing apricot,peach and plum trees.I
am engaged in land cultivation and cattle-breeding in my own plot.I
grow the water-mellon, the rest is given to the cattle. The remnants
of one is the food for the other",-the head of community said.
The head of community informed us, that more than 30 hectares of
pomegranates' gardens were founded, there are about the same size
of hectares of old gardens there. The land for this kind of fruit
is favourable. " Karabakh has great prospects for development of
agriculture. Only the one must realize the value of land, and could
cultivate the land. As if it's easy to sow the wheat, to look in the
sky, to wait and then to harvest. We must work hard and be laborious
for getting results.Each of us must do our duty for strengthening our
newly independent state".Ukhtasar has great prospects for development.
It's not incidental, that the number of the people wishing to live here
is great.Ukhtasar, like all newly settled villages are multilayered
and multielemented. They are from different places, with different
traditions, problems,but the new customs are created in the village,
the people are connected with native land and water and the plot,
the country are regenerated due to devotion and love.
