A moratorium on the sale of wheat lifted
Kazakhstan cancels moratorium on the export of wheat and corn opens a corridor Kyrgyzstan and other countries in the region.
This was made possible through a good species to harvest. According to the Ministry of Agriculture of Kazakhstan, the Republic plans to lay up to 17.5 million tons of grain.
- Consequently, given the orders for domestic consumption, the forecast for exports could amount to 5-5,5 million tons of wheat, - told director of the department of agriculture and phytosanitary security chief agricultural departments Anna Buts.
A moratorium on the export of grain was introduced in April this year «to ensure food security in the face of rising prices on the world market».
News of lifting the ban had expected, not only in Kyrgyzstan but also in other Central Asian countries. It is Kazakhstan is traditionally the main supplier of wheat flour and its nearest neighbors. And the export and pricing policies of the republic is largely dependent food security throughout the region.
For example, in Turkmenistan harvest has been completed. But even a good harvest is not allowed to avoid grain shortages. The point is that a significant proportion of gross collection in the country due to climatic and other conditions account for most forages class. Therefore, Turkey must import food grain from Kazakhstan and Russia. In Uzbekistan, farmers, according to official figures, got beat this season, all records. President of Uzbekistan Islam Karimov congratulated the farmers to collect 6 million 175 thousand tons of grain. For the first time in the history of the country received income of more than 1 trillion 37 billion, collected an average of 48 quintals per hectare. Meanwhile, Uzbekistan, with its more than 26 million people forced to expend considerable resources to achieve food security. For example, last season it was recognized as the largest importer of flour in the world. And the main supplier of flour to Uzbekistan traditionally speak Kazakhstan.
Compared with other countries in the region most acute issue of food security today in Tajikistan. Last winter the republic has experienced severe energy crisis, and in the spring because of the deaths as a result of climatic disasters early harvest of fruits and vegetables people of a number of areas requiring humanitarian assistance. Given that and the best for themselves the Republic of importing more than two-thirds of consumption of food from Kazakhstan, Russia, Iran and Uzbekistan, then it is understandable why Tajikistan today with a
hope is looking towards hlebosolnoy Astana.
- Last year, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan has 300 thousand tons of flour and about the same wheat, - said at the summit in Dushanbe, President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev. - This year we provided humanitarian assistance, shipped thousands of tons of wheat and oil. Naturally, after the lifting of the moratorium, we will supply food wheat, especially Tajikistan.
In Kyrgyzstan cleaning grain kolosovyh suited to the finish. In terms of 800 thousand tons of wheat gross fee passes this threshold. However, there is no cause for complacency. The requirements of the food grain has exceeded the capacity of its agriculture. Yes, and wheat, which grows Kyrgyz farmers, on their condition often does not meet the requirements baking industry. What to do? Once again, all hope for northern neighbor.
- With demand for food grains in 1 million 100 thousand tons, approximately 300
The Fund gosmatrezervov Kyrgyzstan, insufficient supply of grain will be filled by thousands of imported from Kazakhstan - explained in the management of science and development Minselhoza Kyrgyzstan.
Back in April, during his official visit to Astana, President Kurmanbek Bakiyev agreed to the CD with Nursultan Nazarbayev for assistance in wheat. It was a priority, despite the declared Kazakhstan a ban on export shipments of grain to fund state material reserves of the country, stocks of which are already at that time was running out for. They touched and the possibility - following the lifting of the moratorium - importation in Kyrgyzstan until the end of this year, another 300 thousand tons of wheat.
But today the fund gosmatrezervov, according to Prime Minister Igor Chudinova, inadequate supply of grain.
In the Kazakhstan potential revenue from the export of strategic product until the second term. At first the authorities put the provision of wheat domestic market: the Government is obliged to regions experiencing shortages of grain, to conclude a memorandum to his delivery. The republic formed a special stabilization fund, cereal stocks will be replenished by the state food corporation contracts with manufacturers.
According to the latest forecast of International Grains Council, the collection of wheat in the world this season will exceed last year's figures by 54 million tons. This inspires hope for a decline in the prices of bread and creates favorable conditions for food security in the Central Asian region.

Meanwhile,
To counter speculative price fluctuations in the domestic market of Kyrgyzstan in the structure of agricultural production corporations to establish a national buffer stock of grain. In between planting season and harvest prodkooperatsiya will enter into contracts for future deliveries from local farmers and if necessary to reserve the contractual volume of importation of wheat from Kazakhstan market.
