Agriculture

Grain farming is one of the main sectors of agriculture. Economic difficulties in agriculture over the past few years have also affected grain farming. Agriculture has not been adequately supplied with machinery, and the number of tractors and grain harvesters has decreased. To develop grain farming, the use of mineral and organic fertilizers is necessary, which contributes to increased yields. Due to the worsening economic situation, most farms were unable to purchase the now expensive

The next territory of interest in terms of historical and genealogical connections with Kyrgyz tribes is the Eastern Tian Shan and Pre-Tian Shan (we primarily mean the territory of Dzungaria and Kashgaria), as well as Priirtyshye.

On the Subject of Kyrgyz Musical Folkloristics

The concept of folk music (traditional music, musical folklore) is relative in its genesis. It emerged only when, in the process of societal evolution and its artistic culture, highly professional forms of individual creativity developed, gaining the status of academic art. In European countries, these forms were established by a number of social institutions, including specialized educational establishments (conservatories, academies). From the need to relate these professional and

The History of Kyrgyz Journalism

Kyrgyz journalism has gone through a rather fruitful, yet at the same time, a thorny path from the day the first printed publications were established in Kyrgyzstan to the present day. This was related to the contradictory and complex nature of the very era in which it existed and functioned.
