This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state of the agricultural sector in the Turkestan region of the Republic of Kazakhstan, a region with significant agricultural potential. The research aims to identify key challenges, assess existing potential, and determine promising directions for the development of the region’s agro-industrial complex to ensure sustainable growth and food security. The main research areas include analyzing the dynamics of agricultural production, evaluating resource potential (land, water resources, climatic conditions), and examining investment attractiveness and infrastructure development. The study also considers socio-economic factors influencing agricultural efficiency, such as employment levels, population incomes, and migration processes. The scientific significance of this research lies in systematizing data and developing a methodological approach for a comprehensive analysis of the regional agrarian system. This enables the identification of interrelationships between various factors and their impact on industry development. Its practical significance is manifested in the formulation of concrete recommendations for government bodies and the business community on improving the investment climate, implementing innovative technologies, optimizing water resource utilization, and diversifying agricultural production. The value of this study is defined by its contribution to understanding the regional specificities of Kazakhstan’s agricultural sector, offering new perspectives for shaping effective state policies and development strategies aimed at enhancing the Turkestan region’s competitiveness in both domestic and international agricultural markets
