Panorama.am has talked to Narek Sahakyan, the head of Baghanis village, to get informed about the situation in the community of bordering Tavush region.
He noted that the village hardly came under Azerbaijani fire over past few days, adding the situation in Baghanis is relatively calm at the moment.
The village head informed that the wheat harvest have already started in the village, with the Baghanis residents satisfied with its outcomes.
Sahakyan, who was also taking part in the harvest during the communication, noted the harvest volumes have recorded an increase from past year, meantime adding the frequent rains have slightly affected the quality of wheat this year.
He also added that sowing areas are growing in the village year by year. “Villagers increase 2-3 hectares [of sowing areas] annually. Everyone sows in their private lands,” Sahakyan said. “We have no reserve lands. They are totally under adversary’s positions and are not used.”
