State regulation of Kazаkhstan’s agriculture in the context of global climate change

Environmental problems and climate change have affected agriculture, as in many areas around the world, and have brought the issue of food security to the agenda. Hunger arising from climate change and drought exacerbates the problem of hunger. Some crops (rice, wheat, etc.) cause economic instability by reducing production and increasing the price of these products. The decrease in water resources with global warming has caused the problem of irrigation of agricultural areas. The problem created by climate change, which is the subject of this study, is the priority issue of today for countries. Food systems cover the existence of food, access to food (purchase, allocation and preference) and the use of food, which includes production, distribution and exchange. Climate change can change food system in markets, food prices and supply chain infrastructure. In the article general situation of agriculture and animal husbandry in Kazakhstan is explained, the problems of these sectors will be explained. The article reveals low market mobility due to the seasonality of the production cycle, as well as the dependence of final results on natural and climatic conditions, which are changing significantly in the context of global climate change. Recommendations for state support of the country's agricultural sector are concretised, and the increasing role of production infrastructure of Kazakhstan's agriculture under global climate change is shown.
