A favorable business environment fosters the development of large-scale projects in Kegeyli

During his visit to Karakalpakstan, President Shavkat Mirziyoyev also inspected the operations of the “Kegeyli Baraka Naslli Parranda” enterprise, the press service of the head of our state reports.

This large-scale complex was established in accordance with a Presidential decree dated June 28, 2024, aimed at supporting the poultry industry. The total project cost is $7.8 million. With the launch of the facility, which spans 21 hectares, 70 local residents have secured permanent employment.

The enterprise’s high production capacity allows for the housing of up to 200,000 chickens simultaneously; currently, 130,000 chickens are being raised there. The facility generates 4.8 billion soums in budget revenue, making a significant contribution to the district’s economic development.

The complex produces 27.5 million hatching eggs annually. The output is subsequently sold in the form of mature chickens and day-old chicks.

The establishment of such a modern complex in Kegeyli was noted as a positive achievement. It was emphasized that projects of this kind are crucial not only for reducing production costs but also for ensuring the region’s food security.

To ensure the poultry receives high-quality feed, the enterprise has established its own production facilities. A dedicated plant with a capacity of 100 tons of compound feed per day has been built on-site, and all production processes are fully automated.

Previously, chicken meat and eggs were supplied to Karakalpakstan from other regions of the country. This enterprise not only meets the Aral Sea region’s demand for these products but also exports them internationally.

By September of this year, products worth $1.1 million had been exported to Afghanistan. Plans are in place to increase the volume of shipments to $1.5 million by the end of the year.

Another poultry farm, covering 8.5 hectares and costing $5 million, is scheduled to launch before the end of the year. Implementing this project will create new jobs and increase production volumes.

The President emphasized that, in the future, such complexes should evolve into large-scale poultry holdings and help create not only new jobs but also high-paying ones, and he issued the relevant instructions to the officials in charge.
