Early financing for the sowing campaign exceeds 200 billion tenge
The funds enable farmers to purchase fuel, fertilizers, and seeds in advance
More than 1,870 agricultural producers have received financing under the early support program for the 2026 sowing campaign. Applications were accepted starting in October 2025, and the final interest rate for farmers is set at 5% per annum.
Currently, a pool of 2,429 agricultural producers has been formed with a total amount of 312.4 billion tenge. Of these, 1,879 applications have already been approved and financed for 200 billion tenge, covering 2.4 million hectares of sowing areas.
At the same time, a loan guarantee mechanism is being implemented through the Damu Fund, providing coverage of up to 85% of the loan amount. Under this instrument, 526 guarantees have been issued for loans totaling 86 billion tenge.
Applications under the “Ken Dala 2” program were launched on October 1 in fulfillment of the Head of State’s instruction to ensure timely and high-quality spring field operations.
Early financing allows farmers to prepare in advance for the 2026 sowing campaign. The funds are used to purchase fuel and lubricants at favorable prices, acquire mineral fertilizers, repair agricultural machinery, and form the necessary seed reserves.
Concessional financing is available both for the preparation and conduct of spring field works and for the harvesting campaign and seasonal expenses. Funds are provided through the branch network of the Agrarian Credit Corporation and partner financial institutions across the country.
