According to his introduction, the self-sufficiency rate for chicken meat in Kazakhstan was 58% in 2020, and this figure has now increased to 82%.
—"We have significantly reduced our reliance on imports, and related work is continuously being promoted. By 2027, Kazakhstan will be able to fully meet domestic demand for chicken meat." Saparzhayev said at a press conference held at the Prime Minister's Office.
Currently, the supply of chicken meat in Kazakhstan is mainly provided by enterprises such as the Makinsk Poultry Farm, "Prima Qys" (Прима Құс), "North Broiler," and others.
It is reported that Kazakhstan will build and put into operation five new poultry farms by 2025.
Trade and Integration Minister Arman Shakaliyev said at a government meeting on the 23rd that to ensure domestic market supply, starting from May 15, the government has banned the export of live animals, and has also decided to strengthen veterinary supervision of meat exports, and to limit beef export quotas to meat processing enterprises only.
