This weekend, around 3.5 thousand tons of domestic agricultural products are presented at "Dala dämi" fairs across the country. This is almost twice as much as at the fairs held last week, when more than 2 thousand tons of goods were sold."Dala dämi" fairs are held in all regions of Kazakhstan at the initiative of the Ministry of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Their main feature is the opportunity to purchase products directly from farmers, without intermediaries. At the same time, prices for goods are on average up to 20% lower than market prices.In Astana this weekend, farmers from the Abai region, Mangystau and Almaty regions are presenting their products. In Almaty, fairs are simultaneously operating at four venues, where about 600 tons of agricultural products are being sold. One of the largest fairs is taking place in Shymkent. Farmers have brought more than 500 tons here.Meat products are in particular demand among buyers. Beef, horse meat, lamb, and poultry are presented on the shelves.For example, 52 tons of beef have been brought to the fair in the Karaganda region. In Astana, beef and horse meat from farmers of the Abai region can be purchased for 3500 tenge per kilogram. Comparable prices are in effect in other regions as well. In Kostanay, a kilogram of beef is sold for 3200–3500 tenge, horse meat and lamb from 3000 tenge.In addition to affordable prices, an important advantage of the fairs is the free provision of trading places to farmers. First and foremost, socially significant food products are presented here.Since September of this year, agricultural fairs across the country have been held under the unified name "Dala dämi". The format has already become a familiar shopping destination for residents of the regions."The fair has become a good place for shopping. We come here on weekends because prices are lower here. Even if we manage to save 5–10 thousand tenge, it is noticeable for the family budget. And if you calculate the savings of all buyers, the amount turns out to be significant," noted Aktau resident Sabit Sapargul. Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mti/press/news/details/1299260?lang=ru
