Prime Minister: There should be no shortage of water during spring  agricultural work in Armenia

ArmInfo. According to  forecasts, there should be no shortage of water during the spring  agricultural work in Armenia. RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan  announced this on February 18 at a government meeting.

According to him, forecasts make it possible to speak about favorable  weather conditions in terms of water resources. "At least at the  moment we will not have problems with the accumulation of water  resources, and it is necessary to work very hard on the correct  distribution of water resources," the head of the Armenian government  said.

According to the Prime Minister, every effort must be made to ensure  that the voices of farmers are heard so that they do not have to  block roads. Nikol Pashinyan instructed the heads of the responsible  departments to keep this issue in the spotlight. "It is necessary to  work very closely with regional and community administrations in  order to identify problems in advance and to work to prevent their  occurrence," Nikol Pashinyan said.

According to him, it is necessary to speak honestly with the  villagers and say which problem can be solved urgently and which in  the long term.

To note, for several years now, farmers, dissatisfied with the  emerging problems with irrigation water, have been organizing  protests, mainly by blocking roads.
