Today, one of the pressing challenges facing global agriculture and food security is the cultivation of crops that are beneficial to human health, environmentally friendly, and unique. From this perspective, an important step has been taken in the science of our country. At the experimental farm of Tashkent State Agrarian University, a new variety of the Zuriat nut has been successfully germinated from seed for the first time. This work was carried out on the initiative of Doctor of Agricultural Sciences, plant breeder and Associate Professor M. Fakhriddinov. At present, the vegetative processes of the plant are being studied. According to M. Fakhriddinov, if the experiment is successfully completed, the new variety of Zuriat nut will be widely cultivated in the agriculture of our country and introduced into practice. This will not only serve as a source of healthy products for local consumers, but will also significantly increase export volumes. he tree, known as the Doum palm or Zuriat nut, is being successfully grown in Uzbekistan for the first time. Belonging to the Arecaceae family, this plant can reach a height of up to fifteen meters and thrives mainly in hot and dry climates.
The fruit of Zuriat has long been famous for its medicinal properties. Its vitamin C content and powerful antioxidants help strengthen the immune system, reduce inflammation, and improve blood circulation and the digestive system. For this reason, the plant naturally attracts everyone’s interest! This initiative will undoubtedly mark the beginning of a new era in Uzbekistan’s plant breeding sector and enrich our agriculture.
