Co-executor: Kazakh Research Institute of Water Management, LLC

Reports for 2024-2025: BP 217 “Development of Science” under subprogram 101 “Program-targeted financing of subjects of scientific and/or scientific and technical activity” under the Scientific and Technical Program of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Republic of Kazakhstan IRN BR24992885 “Scientific and practical substantiation of the sustainable development of domestic animal husbandry based on the irrigation of pasture areas with groundwater”.

Priority research area: Ecology, Environment, and Sustainable Nature Management.

Sub-priority research area: Water Resources; Research on current issues of soil quality, land degradation, and desertification.

Objective of the topic: Development and testing of technical means for watering pastures for sustainable environmental development of transhumance livestock farming.

Objectives for 2024-2025:

  • Develop recommendations for watering pasture areas for the sustainable development of domestic livestock farming by 2050 for the administrative regions of Southern Kazakhstan (2024).
  • Develop recommendations for watering pasture areas for the sustainable development of domestic livestock farming by 2050 for the administrative regions of Western and Central Kazakhstan (2025).

In accordance with the calendar plan for the program for 2024-2025, work programs and methods for conducting research and development for 2024-2025 have been drawn up.

Results for 2024-2025:

  1. The selection and justification of rational technological schemes for the development of groundwater resources in pasture areas of the administrative regions of Southern Kazakhstan (Kyzylorda, Turkestan, Zhambyl, Almaty, and Zhetysu) were completed (2024).
  2. Recommendations for the irrigation of pasture areas for the sustainable development of domestic livestock farming until 2050 for the administrative regions of Southern Kazakhstan were developed (2024).
  3. Rational technological schemes for the development of groundwater resources in pasture areas of the administrative regions of Western and Central Kazakhstan (Aktobe, Atyrau, West Kazakhstan, Mangystau, Ulytau, and Karaganda) have been selected and justified (2025).
  4. Recommendations for the irrigation of pasture areas for the sustainable development of domestic livestock farming until 2050 have been developed for the administrative regions of Western and Central Kazakhstan (2025).
