In the House of the Parliament of Kazakhstan, which members are re-elected several times, while others are only first-term? Existing studies on the Kazakhstan political elites have mainly discussed the effect of clans on the appointment or replacement of elites. These studies have contributed to explaining the characteristics of Kazakhstan's clientelistic political structure, but the analysis of the relationship between political background and elite appointment or replacement is very poor. The purpose of this study is to analyze what characteristics of members have continuity in the 4th to 8th House of the Parliament of Kazakhstan. As a result, members with activities in Communist Party of the Soviet Union had a higher average seniority than those who did not in the 4th, 6th, and 7th House of the Parliament. And Nur Otan members had a higher average seniority than those who did not in 4th and 5th House of the Parliament. On the other hand, there was no difference in average seniority by local political experience, and the difference by elite type was only partially found in the 6th House of the Parliament. These results reflect the president's strategy for parliamentary control in that the parliament is used as a means of solidifying Kazakhstan's political regime as an authoritarian state. The significance of this study is that for the first time it empirically proved who sustains political survival in the House of the Parliament of Kazakhstan.

Croping pattern, fertilizer application, Soil chemical characteristics, plant nutritional condition and growth status were investigated in three major vinyl house farms near Yesan. Croping pattern changed from tomato to pumpkin due to tomato diseases such as wilting and blossom-end rot. Wilting seemed to be closely related with high EC, nitrogen and root cyst nematodes. Calcium deficiency seemed to be due to high potassium, EC in soil and high uptake of iron. Chinese cabbages in summer showed poor growth (80% inhibition) due to high EC(1.8mmho/cm) and easily got wenny root disease that might due to high phosphorus (1055ppm) in soil. Summer radish showed poor growth (50% inhibition) due to high EC(1.6mmho/cm), K and Mg resulting in base imbalance. Farmers used 5 kinds of compound fertilizer as basal application and one without P for top dressing. Urea and KCL were used for top dressing. Heavy application of livestock manure and chemical fertilizer for every crop made eutrophic even in subsoil.
