7590 trees, unfortunately all were frostbitten. I tried again in 2003,
this time they became the victim of the hail. It was only in 2010 I
got the first harvest '~RKaro Karapetyn told the visitors.

One type of the olives is very saturated. Studies have found that the
pulp of that type contains up to 70 percent olive oil, in the nucleus
it amounts to 27-33 percent.
