Kazakhstan is entering a period when ecological restoration of lands, development of organic farming, greening of cities and purification of water bodies should be considered not as separate directions, but as a single state program for restoration of natural balance. According to UNDP, about 75% of agricultural soils in Kazakhstan are already experiencing various forms of degradation – desertification, salinization, erosion and depletion of nutrients. Potential fertility of soils, according to the State Institute of Land Management under the Ministry of Agriculture of Kazakhstan, has decreased by 17%. www.undp.org
At the same time, Kazakhstan is officially moving towards a green economy, organic production and climate-resilient agriculture. FAO identifies rehabilitation of degraded lands, water efficiency, organic farming, green technologies and circular waste management as priorities for Kazakhstan. According to FAO, by 2040, water shortages in the country could reach 50% of demand, and land degradation and desertification threaten two-thirds of Kazakhstan’s territory. www.fao.org
Almaty is not only the largest metropolis in Kazakhstan, but also a natural and ecological hub, where issues of landscaping, air quality, water conservation, soil reclamation, development of green areas, and the formation of a culture of responsible attitude towards nature simultaneously converge.
The city already has real greening programs: within the framework of city initiatives, trees and shrubs are planted, dendrological planning is developed, new wells are built for watering green spaces, an inventory of ditches is carried out, and irrigation measures are intensified. The city’s goal is to achieve the provision of at least 10 m² of public green areas per inhabitant. https:/www.gov.kz
The water sector is no less important. Kazakhstan is already strengthening the protection regime for water bodies of national importance. Such resources include, in particular, the Alma-Ata groundwater deposit and the Mountain Giant aquifer near Almaty, which are of strategic importance for drinking water supply, environmental sustainability, and the regional economy.The water sector is no less important.

In addition, work is already underway in Almaty to rehabilitate water bodies: cleaning lakes Sairan and Karasu from silt deposits, dredging, reconstruction of riverbeds, landscaping of nearby territories, and development of green zones along water bodies. https://centralasiaclimateportal.org/
The development of organic farming in Kazakhstan is moving from declarations to a systematic regulatory framework. UNDP notes that organic farming in Kazakhstan has significant potential: more than 200,000 hectares are already cultivated using organic technologies and certified by European certification bodies.The development of organic farming in Kazakhstan is moving from declarations to a systematic regulatory framework.

Kazakhstan is introducing three new national standards for organic agriculture from July 1, 2026: Participatory Guarantee Systems, Group Certification of Producers, and Organic Products from Wild Raw Materials. This should lower barriers for small farmers, cooperatives, and local producers. https://www.agroberichtenbuitenland.nl/
In parallel, the national environmental initiative “Clean Kazakhstan” is developing. In 2024, 6.2 million people participated in it, 1.1 million tons of waste were collected and about 1.6 million trees were planted; the initiative received the status of a long-term concept until 2029. https://primeminister.kz
A city plan for the implementation of the “Clean Kazakhstan” concept for 2025–2029 has already been approved for Almaty, which includes 45 measures in the areas of environmental thinking, education, awareness, digitalization, waste recycling, and public participation.
That is why Almaty can become a starting demonstration location for a practical model:
waste → bioactive materials → soil restoration → greening → water purification → organic production → scaling across Kazakhstan.
AVELIFE and GREENODIN are based on a simple principle: most environmental problems cannot be solved by simply dumping, burying or burning waste. Organic residues, sludge deposits from water treatment plants, biomass, safe mineral components, biochar, humic acids, fulvic acids, glauconite, natural sorbents and beneficial microorganisms can be transformed into soil restoration tools.
Previous AVELIFE materials on complex fertilizers for Kazakhstan focus on restoring soil fertility, increasing plant resistance to drought, frost, diseases and pests. https://avelife.pro/
A separate program logic of AVELIFE for Kazakhstan 2026–2040 considers land restoration and sustainable water management as a comprehensive national program. https://avelife.pro/
For Kazakhstan, and primarily for Almaty, this means the need to create a locally adapted technological platform that includes:
1. Reclamation of degraded soils. Application of organo-mineral bioactivators based on biochar, humic substances, natural minerals and beneficial microbiota to restore soil structure, increase moisture retention, reduce dusting, stabilize the nutrient regime and trigger biological activity.
2. Reclamation of urban and suburban lands. Preparation of soil for landscaping yards, parks, alleys, slopes, embankments, sanitary protection zones, areas near highways and industrial facilities. This is especially important for Almaty due to the combination of urban heat load, the shortage of high-quality green areas and the need for economical irrigation.
3. Cleaning and revitalization of water bodies. Comprehensive cleaning of water bodies should include not only mechanical removal of sludge, but also analysis of its composition, safe separation of fractions, possible biological stabilization, use of natural sorbents, biofiltration and subsequent conversion of a suitable part of the organic mass into components for reclamation.
4. Support for organic farming. Almaty region has potential for gardening, berry growing, vegetable growing, fodder crops, legumes and demonstration organic farms. Here it is advisable to launch pilots with partial reduction of mineral background, biologization of technologies, control of pH, electrical conductivity, humus, microbiological activity and yield.
The responsible launch of AVELIFE / GREENODIN technologies in Kazakhstan requires not just commercial delivery of the product, but full adaptation to local legislation, soil and climatic conditions, and environmental challenges.
The first stage should include:
It is optimal to start with three parallel demonstration directions.
1. Urban greening. Pilot in a park, yard, waterfront, or sanitary protection zone. The goal is to increase the survival of trees and shrubs, reduce the need for watering, improve soil structure, and create a “living soil” model for urban greening.1. Urban greening.

2. Agropilot in Almaty region. A plot of 5–20 hectares with garden, vegetable, berry, legume or fodder crops. The goal is to test the possibility of reducing mineral fertilizers by 25–30% without loss of yield, with a parallel improvement in soil parameters.
3. Water Pilot. A separate body of water, canal, pond or section of riverbed. The purpose is to analyze silt deposits, assess the possibility of their safe processing, apply natural sorbents and biological methods to reduce organic load, siltation, odor and the risk of secondary pollution.
For Almaty, such a program can yield several practical results at once:
Kazakhstan already has a state demand for a green economy, organic farming, landscaping, land clearing, and water conservation. Almaty has all the prerequisites to become the first demonstration location for a comprehensive model of land reclamation and land improvement.
We know how to combine these tasks into one practical system based on the principles of Recycling: waste should not remain a problem – it can become a resource for restoring soil, water, green areas, and organic production.
The next step is to update the proprietary technologies of AVELIFE / GREENODIN, their research, adaptation, registration in Kazakhstan, and launch the first pilot in Almaty as the starting point of a large land restoration program in Kazakhstan.
