CONSERVATION
UzRIPI Genebank is the first genebank of plant genetic resources in the Central Asia World collections seeds of agricultural crops which are richest source of initial material for breeding of new high quality cultivars for the future generation are conserved here Now more 23 thousand accessions of 50 different agricultural crops were puted to UzRIPI Genebank for middleterm conservation.
The Tashkent State Agrarian University and The Samarkand Agricultural Institute Capacity building for the agriculture Research work on various topics
Alternative for farmers: to use of low cost or high cost technologies Improved vegetable cultivation technologies (drip irrigation, mulching, IPM and etc.) Resource save vegetable cultivation technologies Safe vegetable production New improved varieties with different duration period Supplying with a high quality seeds Infrastructure development for production, processing and marketing Vegetables export potential Business development
Profitableness
Breeding and seed growing interconnected process of agriculture crops variety improvement
Proposals for research development in terms of climate change (cont.) In the context of climate projections for the future and temperature increasing, a more marginal and risky agricultural production environment: Heat resistant, drought resistant and salt tolerant vegetable crops varieties development Introduction of non-traditional crops Vegetable production in off-season time in greenhouses and tunnels
Crop diversification
Early maturing, high yielding legumes crops varieties for soil fertility improvement
Information Dissemination
through Farmers Days, Exhibitions, News Letters, Posters, Leaflets and Data Base
Capacity building
Improvement of educational programs in universities, institutes and schools Skill formation, professional improvement and trainings of executive stuff, specialists and farmers Information distribution Integrating biodiversity in the intensification of vegetable production and market systems International collaboration potential development
