As a result of climate change, the reduction of water resources and the inability to fully meet the biological water requirements of agricultural crops may lead to decreased productivity and insufficient food supply for the growing population. Ensuring the cultivation of sufficient quantities of high-quality vegetable crops - particularly onions and carrots, which are considered staple foods in the daily diet of the population - is a great importance for maintaining the country’s food security.This article examines, based on field research and statistical data, the issues of ensuring sufficient production of strategically important vegetable products - onions and carrots - in the Republic of Uzbekistan, as well as the potential for exporting surplus products.
