Kazakhstan completes sowing campaign on time

Kazakhstan has completed its sowing campaign, covering approximately 24 million hectares of farmland, according to the Ministry of Agriculture. Particular attention was given to diversification, taking into account crop rotation, climate risks, and market trends. As a result, the sown area for highly profitable and in-demand crops was expanded. Oilseed crops increased by 500,000 hectares and fodder crops by 100,000 hectares-over 6.5 million hectares in total. Experts believe this will not only meet domestic needs but also create conditions to enhance the export potential of the agro-industrial sector. The Ministry noted that all work was completed within optimal agrotechnical timeframes, thanks to the coordinated efforts of farmers, effective cooperation with regional administrations, and government support. A total of 700 billion tenge was allocated for this year’s sowing season.
