The Ministry of Agriculture identified 45-50% water losses in irrigation networks and is implementing new technology
According to him, large-scale measures have been taken to address this issue, and necessary funds have been allocated from the state budget.
“Modern technologies allow us to reduce water losses. We are using a new type of concrete coating that differs from the traditional one. This is a roll material that is laid on a prepared surface, then moistened and hardened, creating a strong concrete layer. This method ensures higher quality and durability of the coating, as well as significantly simplifies the installation process,” Tashtanov said.
He added that this technology has been actively implemented for two years in 40 regions of the country. As part of this process, training for specialists is also being conducted, and methodological support is being provided.
In addition, 500,000 square meters of roll material is being supplied from England. In the future, after the factory opens, it is planned to increase production volume to 1.5 million square meters. Supplies are being carried out in accordance with an agreement with a specific company.
