USAID’s «Competitive Enterprise» project on soybeans completed

The project to develop the value chain for soybeans in the Chuy region with the support of the USAID «Competitive enterprise» Project has been completed. The results of the project were as follows: • In 2020, compared to last year, the yield increased by 20-30% and averaged up to 3 tons per ha. • Taking into account the lessons of the past year, in 2020, cooperation with LLC «ElDan Atalyk» was closer and more productive. A receiving point was opened in Tokmak, which greatly facilitated transportation for farmers and reduced their transportation costs. • Thanks to the joint agreement, the price per kg of soybeans increased to 30 som, compared to 26 som last year, which brought economic benefits to farmers. • Taking into account last year’s experience, AgroLead promptly organized assistance in mobilizing agricultural machinery-combines for timely harvesting. • Also, during the growing season, AgroLead specialists mobilized mobile units – airplanes, hang gliders and drones-in the fight against weeds, pests and diseases. This project was implemented in a consortium with of TES-Centre and RAS Jalal-Abad. U
