On July 13, a delegation from the Republic of Uzbekistan arrived in Omsk, where a meeting was held with the executive authorities and the Omsk Region Development and Investment Agency.
The business meeting was attended by Nikolai Drofa, Minister of Agriculture and Food of the Omsk region, Evgeny Kovtun, Director General of the Agency for Development and Investment of the region, Bahrombek Yusupov, President of the Omsk regional public organization "Commonwealth of Uzbekistanis", and representatives of agricultural clusters of the Ferghana region of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
It should be noted that all regions of the Ferghana Valley (Andijan, Namangan, Ferghana) have great potential. Agro-clusters of the Republic of Uzbekistan produce, process and sell fruit and vegetable products and crop production. Uzbek entrepreneurs are interested in developing large-scale projects in the Omsk region.
Thus, the main topic of the business visit was the discussion of the implementation of an investment project in the field of agriculture, namely, the creation of an agricultural enterprise for the cultivation and processing of crop products (wheat, soybeans and other types of cereals), as well as fruit and vegetable products in the Omsk region.
The delegates were informed about the existing support measures for the Omsk region, and provided with a list of investment sites for the implementation of the investment project.
Executive authorities and business support structures are ready to actively assist partners from Uzbekistan in the implementation of the project. Specialists from the Ministry of Agriculture will provide information on the soil cover, fertility and climatic conditions of the region in the near future. The Agency's project planning and support specialists organize cooperation with local governments in order to organize the selection of sites.
Detailed information about the sites, potential investment directions, support measures, and large-scale investment projects that are being implemented in the region with the support of the Agency can be found on the official resource - the investment Internet portal of the Omsk region.
