Artur Tumanyan's family from the village of Atarbekyan, Edzhmiatsin,
is one of the 14 families resettled in Aghavnatun, Qashatagh region.
The house given to the Tumanyans was in ruins like those provided to
other immigrants. As Artur says the construction materials provided
by the government hardly sufficed to improve the housing conditions a
bit. But they are satisfied with what they have and never complain, the
rest, as he says, will be repaired when they are able to afford that.
Artur is proud to note that they work hard enough to earn their living,
like all the villagers the Tumanyans' main occupation is vegetable
garden cultivation and cattle-breeding.
Seasonally we make mulberry vodka, gather blackberries and walnuts
to sell. Thank God, there are some sources of income and we do our
best to be provided for. As we are newcomers we still have 10 pigs
and a few hens.
Not bad for the beginning, later we shall see whether to go on with
cattle breeding or farming," Artur says.
He does not complain of the conditions of the village, either, as
he says, one may be engaged in animal and field husbandry as much as
possible. "We have a lot of plans, first of all, we intend to build
a conservatory to have fresh vegetables and herbs all the year round
in order that our villagers would not go to the regional centre to
buy vegetables at expensive prices. If I sell them a bit cheaper they
will surely buy them from me, it will be mutually beneficial for us,"
Artur says enthusiastically and adds that a hard-working villager
will anyway make his living, while a lazy one will not get his bread
from the oven to eat.
