Development and Irrigation of Mirzachul Lands

Abstract

The article examines the development of Mirzachul gray lands in the territory of the Republic of Uzbekistan,
the organization of water supply in the Soviet era, the work carried out in the period 1950-1970 and their
consequences.
This approach allows us to study the water problems caused by the development of cotton growing in Mirzachul
gray lands, as well as the inefficient use of water. Although most of the works of that period were named in the
Soviet spirit at the request of the time, it should be noted that they covered the issues of new land development,
irrigation, rich in factual materials, based on primary sources.
R. Berikbaev, H. Toirov, J. Khonazarov exaggerated the role of the Communist Party in their works dedicated
to the development of Mirzachul. In particular, R. Berikbaev said that "after the XX Congress of our party, the
march to Mirzachul will intensify," H. Toirov noted that the development of Mirzachul began in 1956.
J.Khonazarov's article informs about the fact that the capital investment in the development of the Mirzachul
reserve has increased from year to year, about the construction of water facilities in the reserve, but it also
has a Soviet approach to the issue. Today, the great attention paid to the issue of objective coverage of the
history of Uzbekistan without any exaggerations and additions allows us to understand the essence of the
events
