Agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan plays a key role in national economy. Its development will balance sustainable development of the country, will increase labor productivity and will provide increase in living standard of the main part of population. Now in the country the State Development program of agro-industrial complex calculated till 2021, carries out actively.

The planned effect of program implementation:

  • Increase in labor productivity in 2,5 times to 4,0 million tenge on one occupied in agriculture
  • Increase in export of processed production in 2,5 times up to 2,7 bln. dollars; increase of gross output of agriculture twice
  • Increase in investments inflow into fixed capital in branch in 3 times
  • The volume of raised credit funds will increase in 9 times by 2021 to the level of 2017

Tasks:

  • Production safety, access to sales markets and development of export potential
  • Efficiency of land and water resources using
  • Development of agrarian science, transfer of technologies, technical equipment
  • High-quality state services through digital technologies

Long-term industry programs of IAC development till 2027:

1. Meat livestock production

On the basis of analysis and comparison of  foreign markets potential and production of internal opportunities – the main long-term priority of agro-industrial complex development  is the meat livestock production.

The accepted model is based on traditions of nomadic distant-pasture livestock production and competitive advantages of Kazakhstan:

  • 180 million hectares of pastures (from which 58 million hectares are used)
  • 3,8 million people of capable farm people (from whom 1,3 million people are engaged in agriculture)
  • proximity to the main growing markets with  general import more than 2 million tons per year

2. Dairy livestock production

Increase in dairy products production, protection of domestic market, decrease in biosafety risks through state support: decrease of % on credits, lengthening of financing terms and indirect subsidizing.

3. Poultry farming

Export growth of fowl and eggs up to 150 thousand tons and 1500 million pieces respectively through the improvement of state support operating mechanisms.

4. The irrigated lands

Effective use of pastures, increase of  irrigated pastures for forage production development.

5. Crop production

The developed crop production has  unlimited potential for development of food supply, including on irrigated lands (by 2021 the area of  irrigated lands will be brought to 2 million hectares, by 2030 – to 3 million hectares).

Tasks: improvement of seeds quality and introduction of mineral fertilizers in crop production and also intensive introduction of  irrigated lands and introduction of moisture resource-saving technologies.

6. E-AIC

7. Pig-breeding

Implementation of industry programs will allow to reach:

  • creation of  more than 600 thousand new jobs
  • introduction of additional 50 million hectares of pastures
  • increase in production of beef and mutton from 600 thousand tons to 1,6 million tons
  • entrance into number of 5 leading countries on export of cattle stock meat

the additional output on import-dependent positions:

  • dairy products, fowl, fruits and vegetables, sugar – more than 1 bln. dollars.

These funds will be directed on stimulation introduction into branch of modern technologies and  agricultural machinery updating.
