It is known that agriculture is considered an important sector of Uzbekistan’s economy and main source of people’s income. Therefore, current tasks are considered to be further development of this sphere, increasing its productivity through introduction of modern innovative technologies, as well as contributing to export potential. This project covers solutions of these issues and integrated services contributing to adaptation of agricultural producers to climate change.
