ARMAVIR FARMERS SLEEP IN FRONT OF FACTORIES
Large queues in front of Noyan factory in Armavir Marz. Farmers brought
their apricots to the factory, but the queues of five km have been
there for a couple of days. Farmers sleep on the way to the factory.
The farmers say that the factory does not accept the apricot during
the whole day, which results in long queues. The other reason is that
farmers from Ararat and Aragatsotn regions also came to Armavir,
because as they say, in their region they are unable to sell their
fruit.
Recall the ministry of agriculture promised to farmers that the
hail-damaged apricot would be bought by Noyan Company which, though,
buys good quality apricots at the same price as the damaged ones.
Farmers say there is no company to export the fruit, the Georgians
are not allowed to come to buy and for little money they have to
sleep in front of the factory and endure these humiliating conditions.
