Kazakhstan plans to increases meat export

AKIPRESS.COM - Kazakhstan plans to increase export of meat in the near future, Kazakh TV said.
The planned meat volume is expected to be 60,000 tons. Half of the meat for export will be beef.
Experts also said that the number of cattle needs to be added in order to increase the performance of meat processing plants. The import of cattle from other countries will allow improving the population at the genetic level.

Kazakhstan exported 33,000 tons of meat to 11 countries in 2018. High demand for meat and other products is observed from neighboring countries. The country also exported agricultural products worth $34 million to Chelyabinsk region last year. A trading facility is planned to be built in the Southern Urals by small enterprises and farmers from Kazakhstan. Experts said that the facility will help increase the sales and reach regional markets.
