CHANGES IN THE IRRIGATION SYSTEM IN THE SAMARKAND REGION DURING THE 1930S–1940S (ON THE EXAMPLE OF THE UPPER ZARAFSHAN)
Nodir Akhtamovich Melikov ,Abstract
This article examines the Upper Zarafshan water system, which is one of the main irrigation networks of Samarkand and is located in the Rovotkhoja area (30 km downstream from the city of Panjikent). The significance of the Zarafshan River for the Samarkand region is highlighted. In the 20th century, major efforts were undertaken to ensure the rational use of the Zarafshan River’s water. It is precisely from this location that the largest irrigation systems originate: on the left bank — Yangi, Qozon, and Darg‘om; on the right bank — Tuyatortar, Katta Tayloq, and Kichik Tayloq.
