water consumption in the country. Farmers have great potential to increase water use efficiency and onfarm productivity. It is necessary to undertake the improvement and modernization of irrigation infrastructures. Characterisation of the area The study area of this paper is the Republic of Uzbekistan. Uzbekistan covers an area of

Geographers call Uzbekistan a doubly landlocked nation because all the countries that surround it are also landlocked. The main source of fresh water comes from the Eastern Highland regions. The main rivers have been heavily diverted for irrigation and are often depleted before reaching their .

 · TASHKENT, May 27 (Xinhua) Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan signed an agreement on a joint UzbekTurkmen intergovernmental commission for water management issues, as well as a document on paid land use, the Uzbek Foreign Ministry said Thursday. The documents were signed during the visit of Uzbek Foreign Minister Abdulaziz Kamilov to Turkmenistan.

 · Here, water management is a critical issue, as diversion of water for agriculture accounts for more than 90% of the total water usage, mainly for cotton fields in Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. Due to leaking irrigation channels and unsustainable monocultures, soil salinity increases, and huge amounts of water loss put stress on the water supplies.

 · The right to use of waters from crossborder water objects (the Amu Darya Rivers, the Syr Darya, Zarafshan, the Aral Sea and other crossborder water objects) is established by international treaties of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Chapter II. Competences of state governing bodies in regulation of the water relations. Article 5.

At downstream, Uzbekistan uses the water from two main transboundary rivers (Syrdarya and Amudarya) for its agriculture. Share of agriculture in country's GDP comparatively small (about 25%). But the sector plays a great role in population employment and food security.

 · Ninety percent of available water in Central Asia is used for agriculture (Schluter et al. 2010). The downstream countries of Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan use 85% of the Aral Sea Basin water, with Uzbekistan receiving 52% of the total water .

 · Already this increase in water requirements is substantial, amounting to 24% of all water used for domestic food production in Uzbekistan during years with normal water availability. In contrast, it was predicted that population growth alone would raise the NWRF in Uzbekistan from km 3 in 2009 to km 3 in 2034 (16%) at the low population growth rate ( Fig. 7 ).

The global average for wateruse efficiency is USD 15/m3, but values range from as little as USD 2/m3 for countries whose economies largely depend on agriculture, to over USD 1,000/m3 in highly industrialized, servicebased economies. As this is a new indior, adequate time series data are not available to analyse trends. As Member States ...

Since independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991, Uzbekistan is challenged to consolidate its efforts and identify and introduce suitable agricultural policies to ease the threat of advancing land, water and ecosystem deterioration. On the one hand, irrigated cotton production provides income, food and energy sources for a large part of the rural s, which accounts for about 70% ...

quotas. Turkmenistan is using too much water to the detriment of Uzbekistan, which in turn has been accused by Kazakhstan of taking more than its share. Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan say that the three downstream countries are all exceeding quotas. Even within Uzbekistan, provinces have accused one another of using too much water.

The country profile is a summary of key information that gives an overview of the water resources and water use at the national level. It can support waterrelated policy and decision makers in their planning and monitoring activities as well as inform researchers, media and the general public.

 · In particular, Uzbekistan uses 169% of its water reserves, and Turkmenistan 144%. This was reported by experts from the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO. In Tajikistan, Armenia and Azerbaijan, "water stress" is assessed as medium, it is 62%, 56% and 54%, respectively.
