Uzbekistan is the leader in the export of which products in recent years?

Uzbekistan is home to over 4mn hectares of irrigated arable land, primarily dedicated to food crops and raw materials. In recent years, 260,000 hectares of cotton and grain fields have been repurposed for farming, with an additional 104,000 hectares planned for the same purpose. This expansion supports the country's efforts to boost food production and exports.

The country ranks third globally in apricot exports, seventh in cherries and peaches, and tenth in leguminous products like mash. Uzbekistan has successfully expanded its markets, with cherries being exported to 16 countries.

However, regional disparities in export growth were noted. Exports have surged by 2.2 times in Karakalpakstan and Jizzakh, 1.8 times in Khorezm, and 1.6 times in Surkhandarya, while some regions, such as Kashkadarya, Navoi, and Tashkent, have not seen significant growth despite their large land areas. Exports in Bukhara and Syrdarya have even decreased compared to last year.
