The highest number of applications for forward purchase financing came from farmers in the major grain-producing regions: North Kazakhstan, Kostanay, and Akmola regions. Specifically, farmers in North Kazakhstan contracted products worth 18.8 billion tenge, with a return of 14.8 billion tenge or 190.1 thousand tons under the 2024 forward agreements.
