Kirov region increases production of poultry meat and exports to China

According to the regional Ministry of Agriculture, over the past 5 years, the volume of poultry meat production in local farms has increased almost 24 times. Such a significant increase was achieved due to the large-scale modernization of production capacities and the effective operation of Vyatka poultry farms.

The flagship of regional poultry farming is JSC "Aktion-Agro". Now the enterprise daily produces more than 120 tons of finished products, and the total result of work by the end of 2024 exceeded 35,700 tons of poultry meat in live weight.

The high level of organization of technical processes is confirmed by official certificates of compliance with the requirements of the GOST ISO 22000 standard, as well as the Halal standard, which opens the company access to new categories of consumers.

In parallel, Kirov agrarians are actively developing foreign economic relations.

Starting from 2024, the company carries out regular shipments of food offal and semi-finished products from broiler chicken meat to the markets of Kazakhstan and the Republic of Belarus.

In 2025, the geography of supplies expanded due to the entry into the promising Asian market: poultry farmers established the export of chicken legs to the People's Republic of China.

At the same time, the total volume of foreign supplies for 8 months of 2026 was 3.5 times higher than the level of the same period in 2025.

The growth of exports and domestic production has a positive impact on food security throughout the region. The development of the poultry sector not only provides residents with quality local products, but also creates additional jobs in rural areas of the region.

In the medium term, the industry’s performance will continue to grow. The consolidation of a positive trend is facilitated by the agreement concluded in 2024 at the SPIEF site.

The agreements between the regional government, Doronichi agricultural holding and Rosselkhozbank provide for the implementation of a large-scale investment project worth over 9,000,000 rubles.

The ultimate goal of this initiative is to increase the total output of broiler meat in the region by 2 times.
