plant-growing-28%, 25.2% growth is registered in fish-breeding and 2%
in livestock sectors. "Armenia is in the leading position with the
growth of livestock in the whole CIS area. These developments will
continue till the end of the year: we expect to have 8-9% growth:
we have all the prerequisites for it", mentioned the minister.
To his word, there are great achievements in the fruit-growing sphere:
if last year 7300 tons of apricots were exported, then in the first
half of this year the amount was 12 thousand 130 tons. Storage volumes
have also grown, and the harvest is still going on. There are some
certain difficulties in terms of grain plants. Compared to last year,
per hectare crop yield may reduce, although the total volume of gross
domestic product will increase by 4-5%. "Our greatest achievement
is the increase of the sowing areas with 25 thousand 300 hectares,
and the main task is the sale of the product which is provided by
export", noted Sergo Karapetyan.
The minister also highlighted the harvesting process. Activities are
being carried out and all the purveyor organizations operate for it.

prices, supply of diesel fuel and machinery-tractor parks
modernization", mentioned Sergo Karapetyan.

this year the volume of gross agricultural output increased by 8.1%
amounting to 203 billion 575 million drams.
