With around 32 million people, Uzbekistan is the mostly populated country in Central Asia. Therefore, providing a continuous food security to its populati-on through the sustainable development of agriculture remains a strategically important issue for Uzbekistan’s government. Currently, agriculture is one of the fastest growing sectors of economy and the third largest contributor to its GPD (17.6% in 2016). Due to the climatic conditions, as much as 85% of Uzbekistan’s agricultural land is irrigated. The most important crops are cot-ton and wheat, and significant other products include fruits (apples, apricots, peaches and berries), vegetables (cucumbers, tomatoes and potatoes), milk, silk and livestock. The production of raw cotton, a traditionally principal agricu-ltural product, has been substantially reduced, which freed up around 170,500 hectares of land. This land will primarily be used to sow potato and other vege-tables, forage crops for feed production as well as horticulture crops.

Currently Uzbekistan produces around 16 million tons of fruits and vegetables, the volume of which is expected to increase to 5 million tons by 2030. Never-theless, only 15% of fruits and vegetables is processed in Uzbekistan, which entails a high degree of wastage and price fluctuations during on- and off- sea-sons. Furthermore, the capacity of refrigerated warehouses, which is estima-ted to be around 800,000 tons, needs to be increased because it is enough to only store 5% of the national harvest. The demand for modern machinery, processing equipment and cooling technologies is, therefore, growing as the government aims to increase the efficiency of agricultural products.

Animal husbandry encompasses 40% of the total output of agriculture. During the last five years, livestock has increased by 21% including cattle by 7%, sheep and goats be 20% and poultry 1.5 times. Today, almost 95% of livestock (or 10 million) is brought up in private smallholding and commercial farms. They produce more than 90% of the country’s meat, 95.7% of milk and 54.8% of eggs. The number of breeding farms has exceeded 400, and they currently raise 99,200 heads of livestock.

Uzbekistan opens a free conversion of foreign currency! The limitation of currency has been the biggest obstacle in trading with Uzbekistan. Now, in accordance with the Decree of the President of Uzbekistan, private indivi-duals and businesses are free to buy and sell a foreign currency for interna-tional operations (import of goods and services, payment of dividends, credit payments etc.). This opens up enormous opportunities to develop trade with Uzbekistan.

Visa-free regime. Uzbekistan introduces a visa-free regime for a period of 30 days for citizens of another 45 countries of the world from 1 February 2019. The list includes Australia, Austria, Argentina, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Vatican, Luxembourg, Hungary, Brunei Darussalam, Greece, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, Canada, Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco, Belgium, Denmark, Spain, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden , Latvia, Lithuania, Mongolia, New Zealand, Portugal, Bulgaria, Republic of Cyprus, Malta, Poland, San Marino, Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Chile, Romania, Slovakia, United Kingdom, Brazil, Finland, Montenegro, Czech Republic, Switzerland and Estonia.

From January 15, 2019, German citizens visiting Uzbekistan for tourism will be able to enter the country without a visa and stay for up to 30 days.
