Scientists at Tashkent State Agrarian University are developing new local vegetable varieties

view 4

Currently, 85–90% of vegetables grown in greenhouses and 60–70% of those grown in open fields in Uzbekistan depend on imported seeds. This poses a threat not only to economic independence but also to phytosanitary safety.

As a solution to this issue, Professor M. Amanova of the Tashkent State Agrarian University and her students have been conducting scientific research from 2020 to 2025 to develop new local varieties of tomatoes and watermelons. These varieties are high-yielding, export-oriented, and resistant to environmental stress factors, and are adapted to the climatic conditions of the Khorezm region
