Specific and integral efficiency use of land and water resources

Abstract

The article provides information on the importance of land and water resources, which are the basis of agriculture, including the regional efficiency of land and water resources in the example of Samarkand region, the situation within the districts. To do this, the share of districts in agricultural production, the percentage of land and water resources is expressed in comparable indices (ī = 1). The specific (land and water resources separately) and integral (combined land and water resources) aspects of land and water use efficiency were calculated in two ways (brutto and netto). Specific efficiency was determined by the state of water use at the expense of the regional agricultural lands and the Zarafshan Basin Department of Irrigation Systems. In order to more accurately reflect the results of the study, the districts were divided into four groups according to the net (net) efficiency status, and each group was named based on a certain criterion. In addition, differences in the use of land and water resources by districts were identified using differences in netto and brutto efficiency. The results are tabulated in order to change the situation by region and to show the situation more clearly. At the end of the article, suggestions and recommendations for improving the efficiency of land and water use in the districts of the region are given.
