Improving the Competitiveness of Crop Production in the Republic of Kazakhstan

The article deals with the problem of competitiveness and efficiency of crop production in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Presented detailed analysis of the crop industry condition reveals the importance of the pacing factors limiting production, demand, and possible yielding of different types of products, as well as its dynamic entry into the market. It was established that per hectare subsidies in crop production were ineffective and did not encourage the interest of agricultural producers in increasing productivity. The conducted analysis has led to the conclusion that to improve the production efficiency and product competitiveness, the agricultural businesses should carry out certain activities to improve the quality of seed grain, special tillage, as well as the appropriate fertilizer distribution depending on the needs of the soil in nutrients, and other measures that would ultimately contribute to the growth of agricultural product quality characteristics.
