Livestock: Falsification Discovered across The Country
According to the Strategic Planning and Reform Agency, farmers' figures on livestock numbers differ significantly from the actual numbers. The Turkestan region led in the overstatements, Orda.kz reports, citing Kazinform.
When recounting, a little more than 700,000 instead of the registered one million heads of livestock were found in the Turkestan region. The data in the Almaty and Jambyl regions has also been inflated. Almost half a million sheep have been misrepresented in the Almaty region out of 2,200,000. In the Jambyl region, out of 3,300,000 sheep, only 2,700,000 have been confirmed.
In his National Address, President Qasym-Jomart Toqayev noted that data on livestock numbers in the country are falsified, and accordingly, the allocated subsidies are spent ineffectively.
These are, in essence, falsifications for which state subsidies were allocated. Such illicit practices should be stopped, and those who did this should be held accountable, said the head of state.
The Strategic Planning and Reform Agency also reported that after checking the data at the beginning of the year, the number of livestock had decreased by 23% for cattle, 14% for sheep, 20% for goats, 34% for pigs, and 22% for poultry compared to previous data.
Meanwhile, of the nearly 13 million heads indicated for poultry, only about eight million were counted. The largest discrepancies were found in the Qostanay and North Kazakhstan regions. In the Qostanay region, out of two million 200 thousand poultry, less than one million actually exist. Two and a half million were indicated in the North Kazakhstan region, but there were only 800 thousand.
