Object: The agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan was and remains a complex universal structure formed at the junction of industrial and agricultural production. The complexity of the development of the agro-industrial complex, as one of the potential drivers of macroeconomics, is determined by the uneven functioning of its constituent industries: agriculture, industries producing means of production for agriculture, processing industries, infrastructure industries, which are interconnected. The purpose of this study is that the authors of the article substantiate the problems and complexity of the agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan in terms of sustainable development and innovation. The characteristics of the agricultural sector of the economy are systematized.Methods: Review of the works of researchers, analytical, economic and statistical, desk research, systematic approach.Results: The current situation in the agricultural sector of Kazakhstan is analyzed: The dynamics of exports and imports with the EAEU countries are presented; The growth rates of export and import of agricultural products from Kazakhstan are calculated; The structure of Kazakhstani exports is shown, the export of the most important goods is reflected; The dynamics of investments in the agro-industrial complex by type of economic activity is shown; the growth rate of investments in the agricultural sector of the country is calculated. Macro factors influencing the development of the agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan are shown. Internal factors of the ineffective development of the agricultural sector are identified. The negative consequences of the long-term implementation of the import substitution policy in our country are reflected. The scenarios of the development of the agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan are considered and their comparative analysis is given.Conclusions: Strategic directions for the development of the agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan have been developed, aimed at reducing the gap between the agro-industrial complex of developed countries. The results of the above study can contribute to expanding the scope of study on the development of the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, as well as act as a recommendatory basis for their solution.

“…The fishing industry, which had once flourished but then virtually collapsed after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, has commanded much less attention [10]. In contrast to crop and livestock production, capture fisheries in the Republic's lakes, rivers, and reservoirs have never recovered [11].…”

The Changing Dynamics of Kazakhstan’s Fisheries Sector: From the Early Soviet Era to the Twenty-First Century

Kazakhstan, a former Soviet republic that is now independent, lies near the center of arid Eurasia. Its sparse hydrographic network includes a small number of large rivers, lakes, and reservoirs, many ponds and smaller streams, as well as littoral zones bordering the Caspian Sea and the Aral Sea. A diverse fisheries sector, initially based on wild fish capture and later including aquaculture, developed in these waters during the Soviet era, when animal agriculture was unable to meet the protein needs of Soviet citizens. The sector, which was originally centered on the Volga–Caspian basin, was tightly managed by Moscow and benefitted from coordinated investments in research, infrastructure, and human resources, as well as policies to increase the consumption of fish products. Independence in 1991 administered a political and economic shock that disrupted these relationships. Kazakhstan’s wild fish harvests plummeted by more than two-thirds, and aquaculture collapsed to just 3% of its previous level. Per capita consumption of fish products also declined, as did processing capacity. Favorable recent policies to define fishing rights, incentivize investments, prevent illegal fishing, and make stocking more effective have helped to reverse these trends and stabilize the sector. Continued recovery will require additional steps to manage water resources sustainably, prioritize the use of water for fish habitats, and minimize the effects of climate change. This comprehensive assessment of Kazakhstan’s fisheries sector over the past century provides the basis to understand how long-term dynamic interactions of the environment with the political economy influence fisheries in Eurasia’s largest country.
