Production of agricultural crops will be revised in the South of Kazakhstan, Tengrinews.kz reports citing Karim Massimov as saying at the government meeting. “We need to pay more attention to agricultural crops which we normally grow in these areas (Kyzylorda and South-Kazakhstan oblasts). Why are we growing these particular crops? The crops that we grow there are highly dependent on water. Our current policy is that we spend a lot for electricity on this water,” Massimov said. He suggested to involve scientists in the research and promised to come back to this issue by the end of the year. The instructions were given to the Minister of Agriculture and Akims (Governors) of Kyzylorda and South-Kazakhstan oblasts.
