Apricot crops in Armenia will be low due to the recent frost.
Chairman of the Armenian agrarian union Grach Berberyan said the
apricot crops in Armenia will be low due to the recent frost,
therefore, he says there will be no export of production.
Tert.am reports that the gathered crop will hardly meet the demands
of the internal market. He predicts the average price of a kilo of
apricots to make up 500 drams.
The frost damaged almost all apricot trees of Armavir. The damage in
Ararat made up 50%. Mostly mountainous regions where apricot trees
haven't blossomed yet have benefited.
The official export of apricot from Armenia made up 8000 tons in 2009.
