Grain exports to Afghanistan
A successful example of grain exports from the SCR is cooperation with neighboring Central Asian countries as well as Afghanistan. This region of Central Asia is a strategic buyer of agricultural products, especially wheat and flour.
Over the past decades, Afghanistan has become one of the key markets for Kazakh grain, which has not only strengthened trade ties but also made these exports important for both countries.
Due to difficult climatic conditions and unstable political situation, local agriculture is unable to fully satisfy domestic demand for wheat.
Kazakhstan has traditionally been among the world's largest exporters of this crop, and the North Kazakhstan Area is one of the leaders in the production of high-quality grain.
Wheat from NKR is in demand in Afghanistan due to its quality and stable supply.
The main exports from the NKR to Afghanistan are grain, flour, oils and other agricultural products, which ensure the country's food security and contribute to the development of economic ties between the two countries.
One of the main ways to deliver grain from the NKR to Afghanistan is railroad transportation. Kazakhstan has a well-developed railroad network, which allows for fast and efficient movement of large volumes of grain both inside and outside the country.
Most of the grain is delivered to the southern regions of Kazakhstan by rail, and then the cargo is transferred to motor vehicles that transport it across the border with Afghanistan.
Road transportation is convenient for grain delivery to remote regions of Afghanistan, where there is no developed railway infrastructure.
Due to the flexibility and development of the transportation network, Horizont-Petropavlovsk LLP continues to be a reliable supplier of food for Afghanistan, which contributes to the strengthening of economic ties between the two countries.
