Abstract

This State Program for the Development of the Agro-Industrial Complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2017-2021 is a multi-sectoral policy document aimed at ensuring the production of competitive products of the agro-industrial complex in demand on the markets by means of: (a) involvement of small and medium-sized farms in agricultural cooperation; (b) saturation of the domestic market and development of the export potential of domestic products; (c) effective use of financial measures of state support; (d) effective use of water resources; (e) creation of conditions for effective use of land resources; (f) increase of provision of agricultural producers with machinery and chemicals; (g) development of trade and logistics infrastructure; (h) scientific and technological, staff and information and marketing support of agroindustrial complex. The scope is to ensure food stability, major availability of foodstuffs on internal market expanding also export of foodstuffs. The underlying cause is that the average annual growth rates of food production in general do not keep up with the growth rates of consumption and income of the population, as a result of which the free niche in the market is filled by imports and its share in domestic consumption remains very significant. At the same time, there is a low share of processing of agricultural products manufactured in the country and underutilization of production capacities of processing enterprises.
