    President of Uzbekistan promotes grape cultivation for economic growth in Fergana region

    President of Uzbekistan promotes grape cultivation for economic growth in Fergana region

    On July 27, Shavkat Mirziyoyev visited the Fergana region to familiarize himself with the lives of the local population and the economic conditions of the area, especially with one vineyard plantation, the President's press service reports.

    During his visit, the President learned that the "Khairullo Bahrom Boymatov" farm had established a vineyard plantation covering 75 hectares in the district of Altyaryk. The vineyard grows various grape varieties such as Husayni, Kelinbarmoq, Rizamat, and Mercedes. The grapes are expected to be fully harvested next year, yielding a total of 3,000 tons.

    Previously, this region used to be dedicated to cotton cultivation, yielding an average of 2.5 tons. However, with the shift to grape production and the higher value of grapes, the income per hectare has increased nearly tenfold. Additionally, the farm has become a significant employer, providing jobs for some 700 people, including seasonal workers, who earn up to $17 per day.

    During the visit, Mirziyoyev stressed the importance of teaching young people and unemployed citizens about grape care, as well as cooperative grape farming, encouraging involvement from compatriots abroad. Moreover, the President encouraged the diversification of crops at the plantation by planting apple, cherry, and apricot seedlings in the garden, as well as watermelons, melons, tomatoes, peppers, and bell peppers, thus creating additional sources of income for the population and boosting the country's exports.

    To support the agricultural endeavors, a refrigerated warehouse with a capacity of 2,000 tons was constructed near the garden. This warehouse serves as a storage and sorting facility for agricultural products, which are then exported to Turkey and other CIS countries.

    Impressed by the potential for viticulture in the country, President Mirziyoyev emphasized the need to replicate the successful experience of Altyaryk and expand vineyards across many regions with suitable climates.
