Kazakhstan has good launch environment for development of organic crops production, which will potentially allow the country to become one of the major players in the reporting segment of the global market, declared the National consultant at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Sayat Shortan in his report at the conference KazGrain 2018 in Astana, on March 16.

To date, the rates of demand growth for organic products in the world are notably higher than the rates of supply growth. And it makes good conditions for Kazakhstan to consolidate in the reporting market segment, said the expert.

At the same time, S.Shortan noted that Kazakhstan already has the required resources, which many potential competitors do not have at all – relatively "clean" soils, absence of GM crops in production, relatively small dependence on agricultural chemistry, etc.

At the same time, reduction of the logistics costs and adaptation of production technologies are the main issues that Kazakhstan needs to solve for development of the market of organic products, said the speaker.

As for potential importers of Kazakh organic products, S.Shortan stressed the developed countries among the main destinations – the USA, the EU-28, as well as China, Canada and Switzerland.
