On behalf of the Head of State and Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan held a meeting with the participation of the management of Joint Stock Company (JSC) "KazAzot". It was decided to provide a discount for domestic producers of agricultural goods, receiving subsidized fertilizers in the period from January 1 to the end of the sowing season in 2022. The cost of ammonium nitrate for these entrepreneurs decreased from 199,920 tenge to 160,160 tenge per tonne.
"Despite the difficult geopolitical situation, devaluation and in general the situation in the world, as well as despite the fact that the plant, due to worn-out equipment requires large investments, we decided to meet our fellow countrymen involved in the agricultural industry. The current market situation, as well as the vulnerability of the country's agricultural industry, can directly affect the cost of food. On this basis, we have reduced the price of subsidized mineral fertilizers for this year's sowing season. For industrial enterprises purchasing ammonium nitrate, the price will remain the same - within the framework of concluded contracts," explained Arman Akhmetzhanovich Mauleshev, General Director of KazAzot JSC.
