    An active sale was under way today at the newly opened agricultural
    products' fair in Yerevan Saryan park. The buyers are neither pleased
    nor dissatisfied with the prices and service.

    Speaking to Tert.am one of the farmers from Kotayk province said they
    are very pleased with the opening of the fair. `We did not enjoy such
    freedom for about 20 years. Now we have good conditions and I am very
    thankful to the organizers who initiated such fair,' he said, adding
    that he would like such fairs be organized in all the districts of the
    capital.

    The majority of the purchasers does not complain of prices, saying it
    is much easier to trade with villagers as they often come to consent
    over prices. `The prices do not differ much from the market ones but
    it is much easier with farmers as they make discounts unlike in
    shops,' one of the buyers said, speaking to Tert.am.

    Another purchaser said even if there is no difference in prices it is
    preferable to buy from farmers as their products are fresher.

    Robert Makaryan, deputy minister of agriculture, who has visited the
    fair said, `While establishing the fairs we had two goals, first to
    give farmers an opportunity to sell their products without resellers
    and without additional expenses and secondly, afford people an
    opportunity to buy fresh products.'
    The new fair is intended for 150 sellers. The farmers initially order
    the places through Provincial Centers of Agricultural Support, which
    in their turn present the lists to the ministry.
