Continuing Harvest's ongoing commitment to regional economic development, the project is expected to create over 1,000 permanent jobs in rural areas, generating new opportunities for local farmers, technicians, and supply chains. Operations will span southern and eastern Kazakhstan, including the regions of Zhambyl, Almaty, Zhetysu, Turkestan, Pavlodar, Kyzylorda, and East Kazakhstan. Fodder and high value crops, for both export and domestic use, including corn and soybean are planned for cultivation on the newly developed land.

Key project activities will include engineering; geological, and agrochemical surveys; topographical mapping; the design and installation of irrigation and water intake systems; construction of energy and engineering infrastructure; land preparation; and, ultimately, the launch of agricultural production.

This investment builds on Harvest Group SA's recent expansion into the African market, marked by a $12 million investment at the end of 2024 to establish operations in Kenya. The initiative included the development of a distribution hub based at the Port of Mombasa to meet growing demand across the continent. Harvest Group SA, a Swiss-based agri-commodities group was founded in 2015 by Almaz Alsenov, one of Kazakhstan's most successful entrepreneurs. As well as agricultural products, the company also deals in marine and domestic logistics services, storage, loading, processing, pre-export financing, and trade credit.
