Visit to the “Jar-Bashy” Cooperative: Awareness activities on technology of elite potato cultivation

On February 19, 2025, a meeting was held with farmers of the agricultural cooperative “Zhar-Bashy.” During the event, participants were provided with detailed information on the business model for growing elite seed potatoes. Additionally, experienced farmers willing to cultivate the “super-super elite” category of potato varieties were selected.

As a result of the meeting, three farmers expressed readiness to grow 3,000 kg each, and two others – 2,500 kg each. This marked an important step toward expanding the project and strengthening the potential of local seed production.

As part of the Value Chain Agro Finance project, monitoring and analysis of growth indicators are planned to assess the effectiveness and potential of each variety in practical application.
