Kyrgyzstan earmarks 36.6 billion som to stabilise prices in 2026-2027
Kyrgyzstan plans to allocate 36.6 billion som for 2026-2027 to stabilise the growth of prices for goods and services. According to the Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture and Processing Industry, the plan, approved by a Cabinet of Ministers decree of 18 September, includes 57 measures. Of these, 32 relate to agriculture and the processing sector, which has been allocated 29.4 billion som.
The measures cover livestock farming and crop production, storage and delivery of products, expansion of the processing industry, domestic market supply and price regulation. The main aim of the plan is to increase the volume of goods on the domestic market, reduce production costs and lower dependence on imports.
Figures cited in the report show that consumer prices in July 2026 rose 6.7 percent compared with December of the previous year, and 10.7 percent in January-July compared with the same period last year. Price growth is being affected by changes in external markets, logistics costs, import dependence and seasonal features of production.
