Zabadani agriculture official raises apple-harvest estimate to 60,000 tons

SANA quotes agriculture department head Hossam Kharita as estimating a 60,000-ton apple crop in Zabadani and Serghaya, up from an initial 45,000-ton estimate. Its interview with a grower describes weak prices and rising storage and marketing costs. The production total remains a forecast, not a completed harvest tally.

Çavkanî çi diyar dikin

SANA attributes the revised estimate to Hossam Kharita and the cost concerns to a grower it interviewed. The department's survey and a representative sample of farm accounts were not independently inspected. The two perspectives concern different facts, not independent corroboration of the harvest estimate; final output and income remain unresolved. No material disagreement was established.
