Greenhouse emissions in Tashkent and the region will be monitored in real time

A special environmental regime for greenhouse farms has been proposed for Tashkent and five adjacent districts. Farms will be required to use cleaner energy sources, with emissions monitored including via drones. The measures were presented to President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. Burning tires, plastics, bitumen, fuel oil, used oils and waste is prohibited; solid-fuel greenhouses must switch to permitted energy sources by December 1. From October 15, 2026 to March 15, 2027, continuous environmental monitoring is planned, with data transmitted in real time to the National Ecology Committee. Subsidies of up to 50 million soums per hectare and preferential loans of up to 3 billion soums for seven years are proposed. A separate block concerns relocating greenhouses to Surkhandarya region, where 940 hectares have been allocated in the Surkhon-Agro free economic zone, with $100 million in investment targeted for 2027.
