YEREVAN, OCTOBER 4, ARMENPRESS: The demand for grapes will exceed
the supply in the coming years. As reported by Armenpress, the Prime
Minister of the Republic of Armenia Tigran Sargsyan stated about it at
the 8th Forum held by "Fruitful Armenia" in Yerevan. "The researches
show that we have a great potential for the viticulture development.
It is gladsome that there are new and serious investments in the
field. At the same time the issue of the grapes quality will be
more restricted. And here we have the problem of the organization
of the viticulture by up-to-date methods", - said the Head of the
Executive Body.
Tigran Sargsyan reminded that the viticulture and winegrowing played a
unique role in our agriculture. In 1990-1995 considerable losses were
recorded in the field. The grapes production volumes were reduced by
about 65% because of non-functioning of the purveyor organizations
and factories.
"Two years ago the President of the Republic of Armenia declared that
agriculture would be one of the priorities for the development of the
country. The Government makes additional efforts and organize events
to modernize the agriculture", - said the Prime Minister of Armenia
Tigran Sargsyan.
The Head of the Government thanked the Argentinean Armenian businessman
Eduardo Ernekian for making investments in the field and establishing
modern vineyards in Armenia, which is a good example for the peasant
farms.
The 8th Forum held by "Fruitful Armenia" is dedicated to the
development prospects of viticulture and winegrowing in Armenia. The
Forum was attended by international authoritative viticulturists,
winemakers, wine experts and marketologists from France, Argentina,
Australia and other countries.
The key issue of the Forum was the discussion of three components in
creation of the brand of the Armenian wine to be recognizable in the
world - quality grapes development, high-quality wine production and
proper organization of export and sale.
