The Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan approved the Pasture Development Program for 2024-2029.

According to the relevant government agencies, about a third of the pasture area is currently covered with poisonous, harmful and inedible plants, including caragana shrub.

The program is aimed at improving degraded pastures and the standard of living of the rural population by preserving and developing pastures in the context of climate change, as well as effectively managing them.

In accordance with the action plan for the implementation of the program, the relevant ministries, Plenipotentiary Representatives of the President in the regions, local state administrations and local governments are required to inform the Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture and Processing Industry about the progress of work. The ministry has to send summary information on the results of the first half of the year to the Presidential Executive Office.
