FIELD WORK ON CORRECTION OF HYDROMODULE ZONING IN THE SYR DARYA RIVER BASIN
As part of the project "Correction of Hydromodule Zoning in the Syr Darya River Basin Using RS Data and Satellite Mapping Technologies to Revisit Crop Irrigation Regimes," field work was organized in Andijan, Namangan, and Fergana provinces of the Republic of Uzbekistan from June 24 to 27, 2027.
The main objective of the field work was the selection of pilot plots (polygons) for further study, as well as signing contracts with national experts of Andijan, Namangan and Fergana provinces.
Field work was started in Andijan province.
Javlon Ishanov took part on behalf of SIC ICWC in the organization and coordination of the selection of pilot sites. He also directly selected pilot sites for further study in Andijan province.
Shukhrakhon Ergashev and Mukhamadsoliq Khidoyatov took part in the selection of pilot sites as national experts from Andijan province. Based on the results of the field trips, an experimental polygon of the "Suvchillar maktabi (School of Water Workers) at the Andijan Institute of Agriculture and Agrotechnologies was selected as a pilot site. The total area of the pilot site is 4 ha, of which 2 ha are planted with wheat and 2 ha with cotton.
Further work on the organization of the study and selection of pilot sites was continued in Namangan province.
Alisher Baymirzaev and Abdujalil Mirzaev took part in the selection of pilot sites as national experts from Namangan province. Based on the results of the field trips, the experimental field of the "School of Water Workers" at the Namanagan Scientific Experimental Station of the Research Institute of Breeding, Seed Production and Agrotechnology of Cotton Growing was selected as a pilot site. The total area of the pilot site is 14 ha, of which 4 ha are planted with wheat and 10 ha with cotton.
Works on the organization and selection of pilot sites was completed in Fergana province.
Zhuraboy Saymatov and Kadir Kabilov took part in the selection process as national experts from Fergana province. Based on the results of the field trips, the field of the "School of Water Workers" at Syrdarya-Sokh BISA were selected as a pilot site. The total area of the pilot site is 12.2 ha, of which 5.2 ha are planted with wheat and 7 ha with cotton.
The project experts used the "Canopy cover" application in their field studies to have the information on crop phenology. This model helps to determine the area covered by green mass and record phenological phases.
