A new solar-powered drip irrigation system, capable of irrigating 3 hectares of land, has been launched in the Akkurgan district of the Tashkent region, Uzbekistan. The project, funded by the European Union and implemented by UNDP, addresses water shortage issues in rural areas by pumping water from a well at a depth of 180 m using solar energy. The surplus electricity generated is sold to the state grid, and the proceeds are used for system maintenance. This initiative benefits 10 households and has the potential to support an additional 20, promoting sustainable agriculture, food security, and increasing local income.
