The project is implemented in Arys by Turkestan Agro.kz.

The whole scheme of construction, fattening and grazing of cattle will be created according to the Australian "cage" method of cattle breeding.
Here, in Arysi, Turkestan Agro.kz plans to grow fodder crops for cattle on an area of 4,710 hectares using sprinkler irrigation technologies. This will provide the fattening site animals with the necessary volume of fodder.
The head of the company Syrym Ertaev said that currently the implementation of the construction project has slowed down due to the lack of preferential financing allocated for investment projects in the agro-industrial complex by financial institutions of agriculture.
