INNOVATIVE METHOD OF INCREASING THE QUAILITY OF MELORIATIVE CONDITION AND IMPROVEMENT OF SOIL FERTILITY IN EROSIONHAZARDOUS ZONES AND IN REGIONS WITH UNFAVORABLE SOIL CONDITION

Abstract

Soil erosion is a worldwide problem. Issues related to soil erosion in many countries, including Uzbekistan, are resolved at the government level. The article provides a brief summary of soil erosion and its varieties, and methods of combating it, analyzes the results obtained from the study of soil selected for the creation of mulberry plantations according to agricultural technology of the Uzbek Research Institute of Natural Fibers (UzRINF). The conclusion is made on the possibility of using mulberry plantations as a protective barrier against water and wind erosion in erosion-hazardous areas and to improve the reclamation conditions of soil. Recommendations are also given on the need to continue research on the creation of protective mulberry plantations in saline, degraded, low-fertile regions of the Aral Sea region to improve the ecological and reclamation state of soils and to prevent desertification of the soil cover of the region.
