By: Poultry production is expected to increase throughout Kazakhstan with this support. Poultry production has increased by 1.3 per cent this year so far.
Despite the support, some experts argue that the government needs to offer more to producers if they have any hope of competing with foreign producers.
Kazakhstan is also at risk of increased poultry diseases due to uncontrolled borders, allowing importation of eggs at dumping prices.
