Conclusion:
>If this issue is not resolved quickly, if the export ban [on Armenian produce] is not lifted, Armenian agriculture will suffer great losses.
>90 percent of fruit and vegetable exports from Armenia go to Russia. Now is the most active export season. Farmers and business owners are under loans. If there is no export, the product will remain in the domestic market. Prices will fall, debts will increase.
>It is not easy to look for alternative markets. The hope is on the EAEU countries. The European market is largely closed for Armenian agricultural products, fresh products, because it does not meet the standards in force in Europe.
>There are assumptions that this situation is due to Armenian-Russian political tension. In this way, Russia is punishing Armenia, at least reminding of Armenia’s economic dependence.
>Last year, the Russians limited the export of dairy products, citing „discovered violations“. It is difficult to say whether it was due to the quality of the exported product. They used to turn a blind eye to many things, but now they will cling to every little mistake.
Yet clown city and other market chains still import every trash russian products, they even import bottled waters from several countries like there is no bottled Armenian water………….
This is a good opportunity for the pro-western parties that push for a referendum right now to suggest solutions to this kind of a russian blackmail.
Is it a thing with farmers not realizing who is a real asshole? Europe, US and now here, they always blame the wrong side
The Russian market will be completely lost in max 3 years, whether it’s a trade embargo or Russian collapse doesn’t matter, so farmer’s better raises there’re standards and quickly
I mean to be fair, Armenians farmer do overuse pesticides and fungicides way more than anyone, that’s not false and it’s the reason we can’t export to Europe. Russia making it an issue now is a dick move obviously, Russia would have found other excuses too had this wasn’t an issue, but in this particular matter farmers don’t get to complain because they’re in the wrong. Remember it’s also what they’re feeding us locally.
Sell them to the EU or Ukraine.
