Kazakhstan is expanding greenhouse production as several new projects aimed at increasing domestic vegetable supply and reducing dependence on imports are being developed in different regions of the country.
In the Mangystau region, Alatau Green Production plans to build a greenhouse complex with a total area of 6 hectares. The project includes year-round vegetable production and the development of storage infrastructure.
The greenhouses will produce tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, eggplants, radishes and leafy lettuce. The project also includes the construction of a vegetable storage facility for long-term storage and a separate warehouse for short-term storage of fruits.
At the same time, another large greenhouse initiative is being developed in the Turkistan region, where authorities are actively supporting the expansion of controlled-environment agriculture. The region is considered one of the key centers of greenhouse vegetable production in the country, thanks to its favorable climate and growing infrastructure.
New greenhouse facilities are expected to increase the supply of fresh vegetables to the domestic market throughout the year and help stabilize food prices.
