    Half of the Armenian Lori region's Sarahart village male residents
    leave for work to Russia every year. The village has 1,485 residents
    and currently 370 men are abroad. The village head Vasil Piloyan told
    Armenian News-NEWS.am that year by year less people are engaged in
    farming.

    `Ranching is also in a bad condition. When the men leave the village,
    only the elderly men and children remain, and for them ranching is
    difficult,' he said.

    According to the village head, the Sarahart residents are working
    people, but the job issue is rather serious in the village and because
    of that every year `father and son' leave for work to Russia.
