The government has set purchase prices for grain for the 2026 harvest. For grade 3 wheat, they will range from 92,000 to 115,000 tenge per ton, depending on quality. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Economy Serik Zhumangarin announced this at a meeting with farmers in Arkalyk, Kostanay Region."Taking into account market conditions and proposals from market participants, the government has set purchase prices for grain for the 2026 harvest. Specifically, prices for grade 3 wheat are planned to range from 92,000 to 115,000 tenge, depending on quality. Therefore, the price remains at last year's level," said Serik Zhumangarin.The Food Corporation's purchase prices serve as a benchmark for the market. Financial support for farmers is provided through forward and direct grain purchase mechanisms, allowing agricultural producers to cover production costs and prepare for the next season.Another support measure will be a VAT refund for grain traders. The corresponding decision was made at a meeting of the Project Office for the Implementation of the Tax Code. Agricultural exporters will not be subject to any adjustments to the VAT amount claimed as a credit. The validity of VAT refund claims will be confirmed by a tax audit using the so-called "pyramid method," which allows for tracing the entire chain of goods and tax payments—from the agricultural producer to the exporter. If the audit results are positive, the exporter will be eligible for a full refund of previously paid VAT.Serik Zhumangarin also announced that the state program for compensating expenses for grain exporters will be extended through the 2026-2027 marketing year.Subsidizing grain shippers' transportation costs in previous years has allowed for the expansion of Kazakhstan's grain supply geography. In addition to traditional markets, Kazakhstan's wheat was purchased for the first time by Belgium, Poland, Portugal, Norway, the United Kingdom, and North African countries such as Morocco, Algeria, and Egypt. The Food Corporation also piloted grain shipments to Vietnam via a multimodal route through China.The implementation of these measures has helped stabilize grain prices and reduce the risk of dumping. Related industries such as logistics, processing, mechanical engineering, and services have also benefited.A separate section of the meeting was devoted to the development of livestock farming. There are currently 1,132 farms operating in three southern regions of the Kostanay region—Arkalyk, Amangeldy, and Dzhangeldy districts. The total sown area is 581,100 hectares, including 501,400 hectares under grain and 65,900 hectares under oilseeds. Over the past three years, the area under oilseed crops has increased by 1.3 times. Safflower is the main crop, accounting for 51,200 hectares, or 47% of the total area under this crop in the region.Farmers raised questions about the implementation of the "Zhailau" program, which was originally initiated by Kostanay region. Specifically, they discussed the requirements for mandatory pasture irrigation and the construction of livestock facilities. Farms in the southern regions are predominantly located in river and lake floodplains, where natural water sources are available, and many farmers already have the necessary livestock infrastructure. Therefore, it was proposed to allow for the inclusion of existing facilities when implementing the program requirements.Livestock breeders also proposed revising the maximum price for purebred cattle under preferential lending, as they estimate that the prices set by the program are below market prices.Serik Zhumangarin instructed the Ministry of Agriculture to develop the necessary amendments to existing documents and to develop a price guide for purebred cattle.Zhenibek Kenjebaev, Director of Zengi Group LLC, presented plans to establish a genetic center for embryo production in Arkalyk. Investments have already been secured for the project."This project is our chance to increase the number of purebred cattle in Kazakhstan to develop livestock breeding. By using embryos, we will be able to produce purebred cattle. At the same time, we are working on creating a logistics hub for livestock transportation in Arkalyk. We plan to professionalize the production and sale of purebred cattle," noted Zhanibek Kenzhebayev.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1301951?lang=ru

Искусственный интеллект меняет содержание профессий, рабочие процессы и требования работодателей к специалистам. В Казахстане эти изменения учитываются при подготовке кадров и развитии государственной системы занятости.В Послании народу страны «Казахстан в эпоху искусственного интеллекта: актуальные задачи и их решения через цифровую трансформацию» Глава государства отметил рост спроса на специалистов, владеющих цифровыми технологиями и навыками работы с ИИ. 2026 год объявлен Годом цифровизации и искусственного интеллекта.Министерство труда и социальной защиты населения РК адаптирует систему занятости к новым требованиям рынка труда, делая акцент на цифровых компетенциях, переобучении и более точном подборе работы.Как меняются профессииИИ позволяет автоматизировать прежде всего рутинные операции – обработку и набор текстов, ввод данных, корректуру и другие типовые задачи. При этом во многих профессиях речь идет не об исчезновении рабочих мест, а об изменении содержания труда и необходимых навыков.ИИ становится рабочим инструментом для бухгалтеров, инженеров, врачей, учителей, специалистов по продажам и представителей других сфер. Одновременно появляются новые направления деятельности и требования к квалификации работников.По оценкам Министерства, до 2035 года экономике Казахстана потребуется 2,9 млн новых работников. Поэтому при подготовке кадров необходимо учитывать навыки, которые будут востребованы на меняющемся рынке труда.Цифровые навыки – часть подготовки кадровДо конца 2026 года профессиональными стандартами планируется охватить более 600 рабочих профессий. В них включается блок цифровых компетенций: применение инструментов ИИ, работа с данными и BI-аналитикой, основы кибербезопасности.На эти стандарты будут опираться образовательные программы колледжей и вузов, а также программы переобучения, что позволит учитывать актуальные требования работодателей при подготовке специалистов.ИИ будет помогать искать работуОдним из ключевых направлений цифровой трансформации станет создание Цифровой службы занятости на основе искусственного интеллекта.Система будет формировать цифровой профиль гражданина с учетом образования, опыта и навыков. На этой основе ИИ сможет подбирать вакансии с учетом места проживания, помогать составлять резюме, а при недостатке необходимых компетенций – предлагать обучение на платформе Skills Enbek.Предложения о работе, обучении и мерах поддержки будут поступать проактивно, в том числе через push-уведомления в eGov Mobile. Система также позволит выявлять риск потери работы и подбирать персональные меры поддержки.Пилотный проект уже запущен в Павлодарской области. До конца 2026 года его планируется масштабировать на всю страну.Цифровая инфраструктура уже работаетОсновой цифровой системы занятости остается Электронная биржа труда Enbek.kz, где зарегистрированы более 900 тыс. работодателей и свыше 3,3 млн соискателей. Сегодня 91% граждан, ищущих работу, и 97% безработных регистрируются онлайн.В 2026 году планируется содействовать в трудоустройстве 547,7 тыс. человек. Онлайн-обучением востребованным компетенциям на Skills Enbek планируется охватить около 100 тыс. человек, еще 500 тыс. учащихся освоят навыки поиска работы. Профориентационную диагностику на платформе Mansap пройдут 100 тыс. школьников.Таким образом, развитие ИИ меняет не только отдельные рабочие процессы, но и подходы к подготовке кадров и поиску работы. Задача системы занятости – своевременно учитывать изменения на рынке труда, помогать гражданам осваивать востребованные навыки и находить подходящую работу.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almobl-enbek/press/news/details/1301806?lang=ru

В Алматинской области продолжается информационно-разъяснительная работа о значении посмертного донорства органов и трансплантологии. В регионе в последние годы систематизируется работа по организации донорских процессов и медицинской координации.В 2025 году в Алматинской области было организовано два донорских процесса, а 16 января 2026 года — третий. Во всех трех случаях смерть мозга была подтверждена решением медицинского консилиума, после чего в соответствии с действующим законодательством были проведены необходимые медицинские и организационные процедуры.В результате трех донорских процессов для трансплантации были изъяты 6 почек, 3 сердца, 3 легких, 2 печени и 4 роговицы и доставлены в соответствующие трансплантационные центры страны.Стоит отметить, что в рамках первого донорского процесса в 2025 году впервые с 2020 года был осуществлен забор роговиц. Это свидетельствует о возобновлении в регионе не только донорства органов, но и тканевого донорства.В настоящее время в Алматинской области 290 пациентов ожидают трансплантацию. Из них 239 пациентам необходима пересадка почки, 28 — печени, 22 — сердца и 1 пациенту — легкого.Донорский процесс является сложным и ответственным мероприятием, требующим слаженной работы нескольких медицинских организаций и специалистов. При выявлении потенциального донора проводятся необходимые медицинские обследования, после чего смерть мозга подтверждается в установленном порядке. Далее выполняются все предусмотренные законодательством процедуры, связанные с донорством.«Донорство — это процесс, основанный на ценности человеческой жизни и требующий высокой ответственности. Возможность после смерти одного человека дать другим людям шанс на жизнь — большая ответственность для медицинского сообщества. Наша задача — обеспечить проведение донорского процесса в строгом соответствии со всеми медицинскими и законодательными требованиями, а также правильно информировать население о его значении», — отмечает региональный координатор по трансплантологии Алматинской области Тоеке Акерке Турсунбаевна.Донорство — это проявление гуманности и ответственности, которое позволяет продолжить жизнь других людей даже после завершения жизни одного человека.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almobl-densaulyk/press/news/details/1301800?lang=ru
