The Project aims to support the GoU in successfully transitioning to a market-oriented and inclusive agricultural
sector through agricultural growth. Specifically, AMP will strengthen the following agricultural growth drivers: (i) the
agriculture research and development (R&D) system, which will generate a pipeline of new technologies and on-the-shelf
technologies and practices that have been better adapted to local environmental and social conditions; (ii) the seed and
planting material production and distribution system, which will help in more widespread enhancement
of yield,
variety
and climate-resilience in agriculture; (iii) natural resource management systems will enhance soil health and fertility, save
water and promote better pest/quality management; and (iv) extension/dissemination and adoption support systems
that will build knowledge capital and technical capacity of Uzbekistan’s farmers. Further, AMP is expected to increase
market-orientation of horticulture value chains through development of
agro-logistical infrastructure;
productive
partnerships between producers, processors and key market players; quality-and-standards infrastructure, institutions
and protocols; cooperatives to help move small farmer into higher-value production and trade; and intensive orchard
cultivation to help mainstream high-value commercialization of horticulture sector.
