He noted that farmers in the Talas region have been facing financial problems for a long time, caused by the neglect of this issue over the years.
In addition, Chotonov proposed to maintain the current irrigation water tariff of 250 soms per hectare to ease the financial burden on agricultural producers before the start of the spring fieldwork.
These issues were raised in the context of discussing the candidacy of Erlis Akunbekov for the position of Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers and Minister of Agriculture of the Kyrgyz Republic.
