Cucumber sales don’t cut it
People in the Griboyedov village of Armavir region are mainly involved in greenhouse economy since they can't sow seeds in the vegetable gardens in the privatized lands due to lack of irrigation water.
This year Hovhannes Jamalyan has decided to create a greenhouse economy on his land adjacent to his house and grow cucumbers and tomatoes. Hovhannes saidi he already had cucumbers to sell, but the price is so low that he can't even pay off his debt for the seeds.
Hovhannes purchased 4,000 cucumber seeds for 50 drams each, not counting the 100 kg polyethylene bag that he purchased for 1,130 drams.
