C I M M Y TMR International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center
Conservation tillage practice developed in 1960s reduced soil erosion in Kazakhstan but failed to control it efficiently
Conventional Tillage Practices and Rotation :
• Multiple tillage trips with blades and sweeps, at 15-25 cm depth. • 3 years spring wheat, 1 year spring barley and 1 year summer fallow. • Most erosion occurs during the fallow period.

Conservation Agriculture for Wheat Production in Kazakhstan
In the beginning of 2000s FAO, CIMMYT, MoA, NARS initiated large scale Conservation Agriculture activities in North Kazakhstan. Due to these efforts, the area under CA-based practices has been increasing from: 0 ha in 2001 to: 500,000 ha in 2007 1,200,000 ha in 2008 1,600,000 ha in 2011 with continued increases in area according to a recent assessment conducted by CIMMYT. The utilization of CA-based technologies has become an official state policy in agriculture in Kazakhstan. Since 2008, the government of Kazakhstan has been subsidizing farmers who are adopting CA-based technologies. With this Kazakhstan is now included among the top 10 countries with the largest areas under No-tillage in the world (Source: R.Derpsch & T.Friedrich.

Winter Wheat in North Kazakhstan
The cold and severe climate of Northern Kazakhstan is not favorable for growing winter wheat. However, breeding wheat varieties adapted for these conditions, in combination with zero tillage technologies (including leaving the straw and crop residue on the field, direct sowing) can be a good alternative for wheat production and diversification in the northern parts of the country. In the recent years, the global climate change leads to softer winters, and the option to grow winter wheat in the Northern Kazakhstan is being more realistic and reachable objective.

Conservation Agriculture for wheat production and crop diversification
Main issues to be addressed:
Weed control. This is one of the major issues that needs further research. Options for weed control with different weed spectra and these different conditions must be available. Crop rotations. The development and adoption of functional and economic crop rotations and the general diversification of the production system remain as a big challenge to the successful development of CA in Kazakhstan. Fertilization strategies. New recommendations based on extensive and thorough research of fertilization aspects, balance and dynamics of mineral nutrients in soil under CA need to be developed. Training and awareness. There is still a need for much effort in farmer and researcher awareness and training
