METHODS OF SPRINKLER IRRIGATION IN CONDITIONS OF SOILS PRONE TO SALINITY OF NAVOI REGION
Keywords:
environmental conditions, soil salinity, wheat cultivation, chlorides and sulfates.Abstract
Navoi region, situated in the heart of Uzbekistan, is renowned for its arid climate and prevalence of saline soils. This poses significant challenges for agricultural production, particularly for wheat cultivation, a vital crop for the region's economy. Sprinkler irrigation, a widely practiced technique in arid and semi-arid regions, holds immense potential for enhancing wheat production in Navoi's salt-prone soils. This article explores various methods of sprinkler irrigation, their advantages and disadvantages in the context of Navoi's unique environmental conditions, and provides insights into optimizing their application for sustainable wheat cultivation.
