THE ROLE OF FERTILIZERS IN RAISING THE IRRIGATED LAND PRODUCTIVITY

The President and the government of the Republic of Uzbekistan pay much attention to irrigation development in the country. Nowadays the irrigated area is over 2 mln ha in our country. The decree of Ministry of the Republic of Uzbekistan “On land restoration plan for 2016-2020 and the measures improving the usage of reclaimed land” pays much attention to work intensification on land irrigation for creation of the major areas for secure production of raw cotton and the increased yield capacity of grain crops on the irrigated land. High yields on large areas in irrigated farms are obtained only with the usage of fertilizers.
