Negotiations are ongoing to remove a number of restrictions on the import and transit of livestock and crop products.The parties noted that work will continue to remove mutual restrictions in order to maintain the positive momentum of the volume of trade between the two countries.Following the results of the meeting, an action plan was signed to develop Russian-Kazakh cooperation in the field of agro-industrial complex. The document provides for interaction in the field of scientific and technological support of agro-industrial complex.A number of Russian industry research institutes and universities have expressed interest in developing cooperation with Kazakhstani colleagues.In addition, the plan provides for the formation of proposals for the implementation of a joint project to create and develop an agro-biotechnical park, ensuring a favorable regime for mutual food supplies, completing work on the integration of information systems in the field of veterinary and phytosanitary control, and other measures.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/moa/press/news/details/922105
