The promotion of Kazakh honey in
foreign markets was discussed at a beekeepers’ forum in Taraz. Experts noted
that in order to increase the volume of domestic product exports, it is
necessary to boost the bee population. At the same time, it is important to
introduce new breeding methods. During the meeting, experts shared advanced
honey- harvesting technologies. Participants also raised the issue of training
young professionals in the agricultural sector. The beekeepers also organized a
mini fair, where they showcased their healthy, locally made products to
interested visitors.
«Kazakhstan ranks ninth in the world by land area, providing
strong potential for beekeeping across the country. Today, over 200,000 species
of honey plants are known, which is more than enough for honey production.
According to statistics, East Kazakhstan leads in honey output, with beekeeping
also well developed in the south and in the Zhambyl region,» said Ulzhan
Nuraliyeva, Senior Research Fellow at the Kazakh Research Institute of
Livestock and Fodder Production.
