JSC NC Food Corporation, in accordance with the instructions of the Head of State, from November 18, 2024, begins accepting applications from agricultural producers to participate in the direct grain purchase program. 10 billion tenge will be allocated for these purposes.
First of all, grain purchases will be made from small farms in order to ensure that they sell products at fair value. As a result of the program, small and medium-sized agricultural enterprises will be able to benefit from government support measures. Also, the mechanism for purchasing surplus grain will minimize the influence of intermediaries on the price situation in the domestic market.
The food corporation purchases grain from agricultural producers on competitive terms in compliance with established standards and quality requirements.
Preliminary prices for the direct purchase program:
wheat of the 3rd class (gluten 27%+) – 90,000 tenge with VAT;
wheat of the 3rd class (gluten 25%+) – 80,000 tenge with VAT;
wheat of the 3rd class (gluten 23%+) – 75,000 tenge with VAT;
wheat of the 4th class (gluten 21%+) – 65,000 tenge with VAT;
wheat of the 4th class (gluten 18%+) – 55,000 tenge with VAT;
wheat of the 5th class (gluten 18%+) – 50 000 tenge with VAT;
barley of the 2nd class (in kind 630 g/l) – 50 000 tenge with VAT.
The total volume of purchases from one agricultural enterprise is planned to be limited in order to meet the need for state support for a larger number of farms.
To confirm the status of an agricultural producer and determine the volume of grain purchases upon request, a potential supplier must provide a certificate "On harvesting crops from all lands" for 2024 and a report of the same name, confirmed by a state authorized body.
In order to ensure transparency of all procedures, consideration of farmers' applications will also be conducted with the participation of the Regional Coordinating Councils.
After allocating funds to the Food Corporation, farmers will be able to receive payment for the supply of grain. Currently, measures are being taken to approve the financial and economic justification for receiving money by the grain operator.
Applications for participation in the direct purchase program are accepted by the regional representative offices of NC Prodcorporation JSC. Grain acceptance is carried out by licensed grain receiving enterprises determined by the operator.
