Food security means having regular access to safe and nutritious food. In Uzbekistan, where the climate is continental and water is limited, this is a top priority. Agriculture is a major part of the economy, and the country produces around 75% of its food. However, irrigation uses 90% of water, and climate risks threaten productivity. India’s Green Revolution and Japan’s tech-driven farming show how strong support and innovation can improve food security. Inspired by these, Uzbekistan’s 2030 strategy focuses on efficient water use, farmer support, better logistics and storage, and investment in agricultural research.
