PanARMENIAN.Net - The volume of grape purchase expected this year is
accessed by Armenian processing companies at 150-155 thousand tons.
As Deputy Agriculture Minister Robert Makaryan told a PanARMENIAN.Net
reporter, the demand for the product in 2011 exceeds that reported
in 2010 by 15-20%.
"In 2010, average purchase price for 1kg of grapes comprised AMD
124,4. An agreement was reached with representatives of processing
companies against lowering the price any further," the Deputy
Minister noted.
"Price is formed by the market, yet largely depends on the quality
of grapes, which promises to be high this year," the official said.
"I believe, this year we'll have no problems with grape purchase,"
Makaryan concluded.
