65 agricultural cooperatives have been established in Kyrgyzstan

In 2026, 65 cooperatives were established and incorporated into agricultural production in Kyrgyzstan. Their total area was 683 hectares, according to the relevant ministry.

The largest number of new cooperatives appeared in the Talas and Osh regions—18 and 17, respectively. These two regions account for more than half of all the newly established cooperatives.

In the remaining regions, the number of cooperatives was distributed as follows:

  • Chui Region—10;
  • Issyk-Kul Region—8;
  • Naryn Region—6;
  • Batken Region—4;
  • Jalal-Abad Region—2.

This work is being carried out as part of the state program for the development of agricultural cooperation for 2023–2027, approved by a resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers on August 23, 2023.

The program provides for the voluntary association of small-scale agricultural producers to work together and increase production efficiency. On average, each cooperative established in 2026 will manage approximately 10.5 hectares of land.

  • Why do currency exchange bureaux buy the rouble for less than 1 KGS?

    The official exchange rate of the Russian rouble in Kyrgyzstan rose to 1.0373 KGS on 14 September. However, currency exchange bureaux continue to value the rouble at less than 1 KGS, with the average buying rate standing at 0.9700 KGS. The gap between the official and cash rates exceeds 4 tyiyn when buying roubles at a currency exchange. The reason is that the National Bank’s official rate and the rates at currency exchange bureaux reflect different market dynamics.
