A three-day agricultural festival "Kostanay Dala" was organized at a high level in our region. In the future, this event will become annual and turn into the country's main agricultural exhibition. Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Kazakhstan Aidarbek Saparov visited the region specifically to participate in the festival.Akim of Kostanay region Kumar Aksakalov noted that the region's farmers are successfully fulfilling the tasks set by the Head of State.

Over the past five years, the volume of financing for the sector has increased by 3.6 times.Under the preferential leasing program, agricultural producers purchased 1,034 units of agricultural machinery last year. This year, 799 units of new machinery have already been purchased. At the same time, 90% of the purchased machinery is produced in Kazakhstan.At the end of last year, the best result in the last ten years was achieved: the yield amounted to 16.7 centners per hectare, and the total volume of harvested grain reached 6.7 million tons. This year, 140.4 billion tenge in preferential loans has been allocated for the sowing campaign."Our region is the country's leader in food production and export of processed agricultural products.

In August, the "Confectionery Capital" project will start operating.

В течение ближайших пяти лет на Капшагайском водохранилище будет проходить международный чемпионат «Формула-1 H2O». При этом проект не ограничивается лишь проведением соревнований. В регионе планируется строительство завода по производству спортивных катеров, а также открытие академии по подготовке пилотов водной техники. Кроме того, будет сформирована национальная сборная Казахстана, которая будет представлять страну на мировых гонках «Формула-1 H2O» на воде, сообщает пресс-служба акима Алматинской области.Аким области Марат Султангазиев вновь встретился с организаторами чемпионата F1H2O, чтобы обсудить вопросы проведения международного турнира на высоком организационном уровне.— Проведение международных соревнований такого уровня, как «Формула-1 H2O», будет способствовать дальнейшему укреплению авторитета нашей страны на мировой арене. Со стороны акимата области этой инициативе будет оказана всесторонняя поддержка. Совместно с Министерством туризма и спорта Республики Казахстан мы приложим все усилия, чтобы реализовать этот турнир как важный национальный проект, — отметил глава региона.В свою очередь представитель компании H2O Racing Раймондо ди Сан Джермано подчеркнул, что Казахстан является наиболее подходящей страной для проведения этих соревнований.— Мы хотим, чтобы международный чемпионат получил широкое развитие в Центральной Азии. Именно поэтому приняли решение проводить крупнейшие в мире гонки на воде в Конаеве — городе, который широко известен своим потенциалом в сфере водного туризма. Во время соревнований на Иссык-Куле мы официально объявили, что чемпионат мира 2027 года пройдет в Казахстане. В дальнейшем мы откроем академию по подготовке пилотов и будем обучать специалистов по управлению спортивными судами. Также намерены развивать федерацию этого вида спорта как в Казахстане, так и во всей Центральной Азии. Все эти проекты будут реализованы в городе Конаев. Кроме того, мы планируем открыть в Казахстане завод по производству спортивных катеров. Во время пребывания на Иссык-Куле мы увидели, что у Кыргызстана нет собственной национальной команды. Уверен, что в течение ближайших 12 месяцев Казахстан сможет сформировать полноценную национальную сборную, — заявил Раймондо ди Сан Джермано.Отметим, что в этом году этап «Формулы-1 H2O» прошел на побережье озера Иссык-Куль в Кыргызстане. За зрелищными гонками лично наблюдали президенты шести государств. Ожидается, что соревнования, которые в следующем году состоятся на Капшагайском водохранилище, будут транслироваться в прямом эфире почти для одного миллиарда зрителей по всему миру. Это, безусловно, станет мощным импульсом для развития туристического потенциала Казахстана и повысит интерес иностранных гостей к стране.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almobl/press/news/details/1268799?lang=ru
