EXPERT: MANY FISH-BREEDING FARMS SELLING FISHES AT PRICES ALMOST EQUAL TO THE PRIME COST
YEREVAN, July 25. /ARKA/. Many fish-breeding companies sell fishes
at prices almost equal to the prime cost, Arthur Atoyan, head of the
Association of Armenian Fish Breeders and Exporters, told journalists
on Thursday.
"Taking into account things in other countries and fodder prices at
the world market, it can be said that fishes in Armenia are too cheap,"
he said.
Remembering that the prime cost of fishes depends on output volumes,
Atoyan stressed that large farmers can afford to sell their products
at low prices, while small and medium fish-breeders face treat of ruin.
The National Statistical Service says the price for fresh starlets
ranged from 2,343 drams to 3,442 drams per one kilogram in June
in Armenia, and fresh trout price ranged between 1,600 drams and
2,431 drams.
According to the official statistical reports, fish-breeding farms'
output totaled 534.2 tons in May 2013 - 27.8% year-on-year growth.
