Flower-growing innovations adopted in Turkistan region

In the Turkistan region, Dutch roses are being cultivated using modern technologies. A 1.5-hectare greenhouse has been planted with 105,000 rose bushes, featuring 10 different varieties. The seedlings, imported from the Netherlands, have adapted well to their new environment. Local farmers believe that only through the integration of science and modern technologies in agriculture can high yields be achieved. Supplies to the domestic market have already begun, with plans to export the roses in the future. The farmers also intend to expand the greenhouse and harvest up to 10 million flowers annually. The cost of this private investment project exceeds one billion tenge. 

«The seedlings are Dutch, and along with specialists from the Netherlands, we have implemented an innovative rose cultivation technology. We start from scratch — from planting to the final product. We have established a fully integrated production cycle,» said farm manager Daniyar Kaltayev.

«First, we measure the stem length and prepare the packaging accordingly. The price matches the quality. Our flowers are the freshest. In addition to Kazakhstan, they are also shipped to Uzbekistan,» shared resident of Jibek Joly village Minovar Karimova.
