(Translated by Diana Dundua) 

Armenia has sold 800 tons of apricots to Russia in 2007, a drop of 11 percent. 135 tons of cherries were exported north, 85 tons less than this time in 2006. Precisely two tons of Armenian peaches and 17 tons of plums were bought by Russia so far this year, according to the news agency Regnum.

Armenia is suffering from a poor harvest this year, Regnum reports.
