In the Toktogul District, a model project for intensive gardening has been launched
As reported by the press service of the Ministry of Water Resources, Agriculture, and Processing Industry of the Kyrgyz Republic, this project will serve as a demonstration site for the implementation of water-saving technologies in the region. The main goal is the rational use of water resources and the return of unused lands to active agricultural circulation.

In the coming days, the establishment of an intensive orchard will begin on the prepared land. Out of 30 hectares, 15 will be allocated for apple plantations, while the remaining area is planned for the planting of Kokon cherry. An important feature of this approach is the monoculture of the plantings, which will allow agronomists to more easily adhere to agrotechnical standards, simplify tree care, and significantly increase final yields.

The location for the orchard has been chosen along the strategically important Bishkek–Osh highway, which will ensure accessibility for the general public and make it a visible example for farmers in the region. The relevant ministry emphasizes that such initiatives contribute to the popularization of agricultural innovations and the sustainable development of agriculture in the country. It is expected that the successful experience gained in the Toktogul District will serve as an incentive for private farms to transition to drip irrigation systems.
