In compliance with the presidential decree, the Association of fat-and-oil industry enterprises (“Uzyogmoysanoat”) will be created on the basis of “Uzpakhtayog”.

This, in turn, leads to the inefficiency of the oil-and-fat industry enterprises with state participation and reduction of their competitiveness.
“The actual situation in the industry indicates problems associated with the lack of a unified management system for the oil-and-fat industry, ineffective product quality control mechanisms which negatively affect the introduction of advanced technologies, attracting investment and development of the industry as a whole,” the document says.

Main objectives of the association are development of a strategy for the improvement of the oil-and-fat industry as a single complex for the processing of oilseeds, production of oil and fat products, organization of marketing research in domestic and foreign markets, as well as much more things.
The association receives the following benefits:
• it is exempt from property tax, as well as corporate income tax;
• deductions of organizations under contracts to the Association “Uzyogmoysanoat” are excluded from the taxable base for corporate income tax.
