05.16.2014 16:15 epress.am
The spring frost in Armenia damaged around 9,185 hectares -- apricot
orchards were particularly severely affected, reports local daily
Zhoghovurd. In place of the Armenian apricot in the market, the output
of which will be small this year, will be imports. State Service for
Food Safety spokesperson Armine Sukiasyan, in conversation with the
paper, said, "In January and February 2014, 35 kg of apricots were
imported from South Africa; from New Zealand, 36 kg. While in April
and May, 454 kg of apricots were imported to Armenia from Turkey."
The newspaper reports that 1 kg of the imported apricots cost about
2,500 AMD (about $6 USD), and the small amounts are due to test checks
on the market.
