    According to a report by the Armenian Satellite Network on September 8, Eurasian Economic Commission Executive Committee Industrial and Agro-industrial Complex Member (Ministerial) Kamalyan said that there is a large gap in the Eurasian Economic Union’s grains , vegetables and some other crop seeds.
    It is necessary to import about 1 billion US dollars of seeds from third countries each year , of which the import value of vegetable seeds is about 120-130 million US dollars
    .
    Because seed breeding does not require a large area of ​​land and transportation costs are controllable, Armenia has the opportunity to become the main supplier of seeds for the alliance
    .
    Kamalyan pointed out that, taking vegetable seeds as an example, the current sub-production capacity is limited.
    Even if it is to meet the 20%-30% seed demand of the alliance, it still needs to cooperate with large global seed producers
    .
     
    At present, Armenia exports about 500-600 million US dollars of fresh fruits and vegetables each year, and Russia is its main consumer market
