Zengi Group / Knowledge hub
Better agricultural decisions start with understanding.
Practical Zengi Group guides to agricultural finance, livestock, crop farm diversification, land, feed and agribusiness investment in Kazakhstan.
Livestock finance: preparing a project for current programmes
Understand ACC programmes at 5% and 6%, the scope of Damu guarantees and the calculations to prepare before applying.
Assessing livestock diversification for a crop farm
Check feed resources, staffing, water and cash flow before diversification. Understand how Igilik, Bereke and Ken Dala 2 differ.
Farm due diligence: what to reconcile before a purchase
A practical framework for checking assets, herd records, operating data and cash flows when buying an existing farm.
Livestock procurement: linking selection, records and acceptance
What to agree before a livestock deposit: specifications, origin, veterinary checks, transport and batch acceptance.
09 / Common questions
Clarity first. Then a decision.
Can we start with a small farm?
Yes. We start with your task and the available data. A rapid project review over 5–7 working days is often enough for the first decision: what is viable, which data are missing and where to invest first.
Do you guarantee a loan or subsidy?
We are responsible for the agreed scope of preparation and support. The bank, investor or programme operator makes the decision. Before starting, we check the main eligibility criteria, collateral, own contribution and availability of the financing instrument.
What will I receive besides a report?
Depending on the task, you receive an editable financial model, a business plan, a transaction risk register, design solutions or an implementation plan with responsibilities and deadlines. The contract lists the outputs and file formats for each stage.
How are fees and payments agreed?
After the first meeting, we provide a proposal with the scope, schedule and fixed stage fees. Payment is usually split into an advance and payments for agreed deliverables. Site visits, laboratory work, design review and third-party services are listed separately.
Can you support construction and livestock procurement?
Yes: from concept design and site selection to coordinating design documentation, design review and acceptance of a livestock batch. Design, survey, veterinary and legal procedures are carried out by appropriately authorised specialists.
Do you work throughout Kazakhstan?
Yes. We combine analysis and document preparation with site visits when the task requires them. We agree the locations, number of visits and expenses in advance.
How are my documents protected?
On request, we sign a confidentiality agreement before materials are shared. We define the project team and access to data. We do not publish client information or project results without approval.
