In conditions of global economic instability, as well as during a shock such as COVID-19, the world faces challenges to provide the planet with food. Historically, the main element of Kazakhstan economic specification is agriculture. Despite that Kazakhstan has resource and export potential, the current trend in the agricultural industry is not the country’s full power to ensure the economic accessibility of food and its physical availability not only to satisfy domestic demand, but also for export. A reason for this is that the amount of state funds allocated to this industry is insufficient despite its annual growth. In this regard, the role of investments in the agro-industrial complex is increasing in the country’s economy.
