MosJan Posted November 23, 2001 Report Share Posted November 23, 2001 ARMENIAN FARMERS GATHER 350,000 METRIC TONS OF POTATO YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 23, ARMENPRESS: Armenian agriculture ministry said potato-growers have gathered this year 350,000 metric tons of potato from a total of 32,462 hectares of land, by 60,000 more than last year. Each hectare yielded an average of 125 metric centers of potato. An official of the ministry said this amount would be sufficient to meet domestic demands in potato. Part of it is being now sold in neighboring Georgia. The heavy snowfall that swept across the country on Wednesday, blocking major highways, has raised prices for potatoes in Yerevan markets.
