Farmers' Center

The center provides assistance to local farmers and gardeners --professional and amateur -- in developing more efficient use of land and effective methods of farming. In the spring of 1998, the center held a seminar on this topic attended by farmers from twelve regions of Uzbekistan, students of agriculture, amateur gardeners, and specialists from the Ministry of Agriculture.

The center also helped children of a local orphanage set up a vegetable garden, which is now maintained by the orphans themselves.
