Measures have been established to boost the export of fruit and vegetable products.

Uzbekistan has 3.2 million hectares of irrigated land used for both food cultivation and raw material production for industry. In recent years, 260,000 hectares previously used for cotton and grain have been allocated for cultivation by the population, with plans to allocate an additional 104,000 hectares in the future.

This year, food exports increased by $370 million compared to last year, exceeding $2 billion. Uzbekistan ranks third in the world for apricot exports, seventh for cherry and peach exports, and tenth for legume crops. Cherry alone is exported to 16 countries.

Exports from Karakalpakstan and the Jizzakh region increased by 2.2 times, in Khorezm by 1.8 times, and in Surkhandarya by 1.6 times. However, in some regions, changes are minimal. For instance, in Kashkadarya, Navoi, and Tashkent regions, despite significant land resources, growth rates do not meet their potential. In Bukhara and Syrdarya regions, exports even decreased.

The country has 5,000 rural mahallas and another 2,000 mahallas in cities and district centers, where households have private plots. However, seedlings have only been distributed in a thousand mahallas, and entrepreneurs buying products have been assigned to local residents. In 26 districts, support for such households has not been organized, and in some cases, people lost their harvests due to being sold poor-quality seeds.

To resolve these issues, employees from the Plant Quarantine and Protection Agency will be assigned to each mahalla, household, and farm.

Private plots, street edges, the area along fields and canals – a total of 650,000 hectares of land – can be utilized for planting trees and food crops. Accurate data on such lands will be recorded in the "Agroplatform," and the population and farmers will be trained in the proper selection of seeds, use of fertilizers, and storage of products.

Significant incentives will be provided to stimulate these efforts. Farmers who effectively utilize field perimeters will earn additional points in the entrepreneurs' rating, and a phytosanitary certificate will be issued free of charge for a year. Land tax for the entire area will be payable in installments over two years. Under the "Family Entrepreneurship" program, loans of up to 100 million sums will be provided through a simplified system. Monitoring of field perimeter use and the volume of produced goods will be conducted via the "e-Fitouz" portal.

An initiative has been proposed to plant 10 million grape vines along the streets of mahallas and around apartment buildings. Before the plants start yielding, all agronomic activities will be supported by the Councils of Farmers, Dehkan Farms, and private plot owners. Mahallas will be linked with export enterprises for product purchases.

The meeting also addressed issues related to the processing of fruits and vegetables.

Due to falling prices during the peak harvest season, crops such as cabbage, beets, and onions remain in the fields. This year, a significant portion of the watermelon harvest also went uncollected. However, excess products can be processed, dried, or turned into food additives for export, which are in demand by food industry enterprises.

To ensure year-round exports, shock freezing technology will be implemented. The Ministry of Agriculture and local authorities have been tasked with implementing such projects next year.

In addition, 10 agro-logistics centers, over a thousand cold storage facilities, and more than 40,000 hectares of industrial intensive orchards and vineyards will be established.

On the global market, prices for organic products are 2–3 times higher. However, in Uzbekistan, only 3,900 hectares of land in 10 districts have organic certification. In Andijan, Jizzakh, and Khorezm, such crops are not grown at all.

Meanwhile, 2,000 hectares of land around reservoirs are cultivated without pesticide treatment. It is sufficient to obtain organic certification and use quality seeds and seedlings.

The goal is to increase the area of organic land to 10,000 hectares by 2025 and to 100,000 hectares within the next three years.

Farmers and dehkans creating organic fields will be reimbursed for the costs of laser leveling the land. Funds will also be allocated for subsidizing "Organic," "Global Gap," "Halal," and "Kosher" certificates.

This year, separate shelves for Uzbek products have been designated in major retail chains in Oman, allowing cherries, peaches, and apricots to be exported there for the first time. It was noted that this practice should be expanded to the markets of Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Singapore, South Korea, Japan, and Europe. Instructions were given for organizing trade fairs and arranging phytosanitary permits.

It is expected that due to these measures, fruit and vegetable exports could reach $3.5 billion next year.

The meeting also touched upon environmental protection issues. Responsible officials presented reports on the progress of waste processing projects in Andijan, Jizzakh, Navoi, Namangan, Samarkand, and Tashkent regions.

Particular attention was once again paid to the nationwide initiative "Green Space." As part of this project, it is planned to plant 200 million trees and shrubs every spring and autumn. To date, ministries, agencies, and local authorities have created 257 parks, and this number will be increased to 517.

The President emphasized that state organizations should set an example in such good deeds, and construction companies should demonstrate social responsibility.

The meeting also analyzed the issue of executive discipline. It was noted that completing all tasks by the end of the year would enhance work effectiveness.

Next year, a systematic account of the activities of leaders in all ministries, regions, and districts will be implemented. An electronic platform will serve as the basis for evaluating effectiveness and calculating the salaries of leaders. The Prime Minister has been tasked with implementing this system and strengthening control over discipline and task execution.
