Scientists at the Research Institute of Horticulture, Viticulture, and Winemaking in Uzbekistan have developed new varieties of nectarine called "Khosiyat" and "Ifora." These nectarines are large, weighing about 200 grams on average, and have a long shelf life. Uzbekistan is a major exporter of peaches and nectarines, and this year, they have seen a record volume of exports, with 51.1 thousand tons exported in the first two months of the season.
