BreedExpo project trip to Kazakhstan
From October 21 to 24, as part of the “BreedExpo” project, we visited the capital of Kazakhstan, Nur-Sultan, together with project partners from Finland and Estonia, to present the Latvian cattle industry at the “KazAgro/KazFarm2019” exhibition and offer Kazakh farmers the opportunity to purchase breeding animals. The members of the board of the Association “Zemnieku saeima” Mārtiņš Trons and Kaspars Ādams and experts Inga Bērziņa and Raimonds Jakovickis went on the trip from Latvia. During the trip, we visited the beef cattle farm “Žana-Bereke”. We also had the opportunity to visit the Kazakhstan “Meat Processors Association”. The General Director of the association, Maksuts Baktibayev, gave us an insight into the agricultural sector of Kazakhstan.
