Between January and November, rail supplies increased by 6%. During this period, the cargo turnover reached 203 billion ton-km, which exceeds the figure for the same period last year by 7%. The volume of goods shipped during the designated period amounted to 233.500.000 tons, which is also 6% higher than that for the previous year.

Over the 11 months of 2018, the volumes of grain supplies reached 10.200.000 tons, which is 38% more than last year. The volume of supply of grinding products amounted to slightly more than 3.000.000 tons, which exceeds the previous year figures by 8%.

In Kazakhstan, there is a positive trend in the development of rail transport and grain transportation. According to statistics, the grain turnover by rail increased by 38% in 2021. This indicates an increase in exports and an increase in the competitiveness of Kazakhstan in world markets.

Such growth is possible thanks to the improvement of infrastructure and the introduction of new technologies in production. The railroad remains one of the most efficient ways to transport grain, as it ensures fast and reliable delivery of products to their destination.

Thanks to the increase in grain turnover by rail, Kazakhstan has more opportunities to export its products to world markets. This, in turn, contributes to the development of the country’s economy and strengthening its position on the world stage.
