Abstract The aim of this study was to review the agricultural sector of Uzbekistan with the purpose of identifying the major
constraints to the development of the sector with special emphasis on the fruits and vegetables subsectors, thereby to suggest
policy recommendations for the development of the sector. Although recent reforms have provided opportunities for
liberalization, especially for the fruits and vegetable subsectors, they are not sufficient. Therefore, modernization of the
agricultural marketing system in Uzbekistan was considered a precondition for the development of agricultural processing in
the country. Accordingly, policy suggestions are provided for implementation in stages. Specific recommendations were also
outlined pertaining to the key constraints identified; namely, pertaining to agricultural production and productivity, quality of
land resources, irrigation, reforms, R&D, and agricultural marketing.
