Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan have agreed on a set of coordinated measures to ensure the uninterrupted movement of grain cargo through the Saryagash Interstate Junction Point, Trend reports via Kazakhstan Temir Zholy.

The agreements were finalized during a multilateral meeting held in Saryagash and Tashkent, attended by the Kazakh delegation led by Chairman of JSC NC Kazakhstan Temir Zholy and First Vice Minister of Agriculture Yermek Kenzhekhanuly, as well as senior Uzbek officials including Transport Minister Ilkhom Makkamov, Deputy Agriculture Minister Khasanboy Yuldashev, and Chairman of Uzbekistan Railways Zhasurbek Narzullaev.

The parties approved joint steps to manage rising grain volumes along the corridor to Central Asia and Afghanistan - flows that have increased significantly in 2025. In the first 11 months of the year, grain shipments to Central Asian countries rose by 32% to 5.6 million tons, contributing to congestion at Uzbek receiving terminals.
