EFFICIENCY OF MODERN TECHNOLOGIES IN INCREASING YIELD AND IMPROVING SOIL FERTILITY
S.R. Umarov- Tashkent Institute of Engineers Irrigation and Agricultural Mechanization National Research University, Doctor of Economics, Professor of the Department of Economics; N.J. Mamanazarova, Kh.N Mirjamilova - Assistants teacher of University of economy and pedagogy. Abstract Measures to ensure high standards of agriculture, improve soil fertility, and increase crop yield are an important part of the system of rational tillage, which improves its air, water, heat, and nutrient regimes, regulates biological processes, and the rate of mineralization of organic matter at the required level. Consequently, it destroys weeds, diseases and pests of agricultural plants. At the same time, conditions are created for soil erosion protection and quality planting. The history of agricultural development goes back to the distant past, about 10-15 million years, and is closely related to the moldboard system of soil cultivation. Tillage is the most energy-intensive and economically expensive process in agricultural production. On average, 40% of the total volume of field work is energy and 25% labor costs. In this case, each method of tillage should be reasonable, the profitability of costs should be maximum. Keywords: soil, soil fertility, water, mineralization, plant, moisture, soil erosion, crops, weeds, herbicides, field work, vegetative weeds, "conservative" agriculture, diversity of microflora, plowing, agrochemicals and fertilizers.
THE IMPORTANCE OF IMPLEMENTATION OF ISLAMIC FINANCE PRODUCTS TO COMMERCIAL BANKS
Z.Shodmonov – MBA, Banking and Finance Academy of the Republic of Uzbekistan Abstract Many studies have been conducted on the scientific basis of Islamic finance, the role of this financial sector in the banking and financial system of the world countries, its development trend and future forecasting, and these works are being continued intensively. The research also explores issues such as strengthening the global share of the Islamic finance sector and leveraging its full potential and increasing its assets. In the development of Islamic finance in the world, it is necessary to conduct scientific research on the regulation and coordination of all issues related to this topic, as well as to study the level of influence of this system on the world economic development on a large scale. The Islamic banking system was founded in the 1970s. In a short time, it has become an integrated mechanism that can fully compete with commercial banks. Unlike commercial banks, Islamic banks attract entrepreneurs and businessmen through a profit and loss sharing system (credit system). This system attracted not only Muslims but also representatives of other religions with its fairness and low level of financial crisis. In recent years, the total assets of Islamic financial institutions have grown by 15-20% per year and reached 2.5 trillion dollars. Therefore, it is important to attract funds from existing banks, investment funds and companies based on Islamic finance in developed countries in order to support the private sector and socio-economic development of Uzbekistan. Keywords: commercial banking, Islamic banking system, traditional banking services, mudoraba, resource, partnership, diversification, Islamic principles.

THEORETICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS MARKET IN UZBEKISTAN
Sh.Murodov – PhD, Associate professor, A.Mamasadikov – senior teacher, TIIAME National Research University Abstract Our country is implementing comprehensive measures to develop markets for agricultural products, agricultural resources and agricultural services, which allow us to develop agriculture and ensure the country’s food security. Particular attention is paid to the use of modern technologies in increasing agricultural production, creating intensive gardens, comprehensive support for diversified farms, and establishing the production of export products. If we pay attention to the features of the formation of common markets in our republic, although the process of integration with the external market can theoretically accelerate the arrival of relatively cheap resources and services in the agricultural sector and expand the possibilities of creating a competitive environment, this process can take a lot of time. Because integration between industries at different levels of economic and technological development is difficult, and even if it happens, the markets of countries based on technologically advanced modern production technologies will have a clear advantage. Keywords: theoretical foundations, global agricultural, agricultural products market, export, production process composition, development criteria and indicators of security.
THE QUALITY OF LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS IS A KEY DEVELOPMENT FACTOR OF SPHERE
B.Nosirov – Associate professor, Andijan Institute of Agriculture and Agrotechnologies, Uzbekistan Abstract The quality of livestock products in Uzbekistan plays a pivotal role in the development of livestock. From dairy to meat and wool, the quality of these products not only affects the nation's economy but also the well-being of its citizens. In this article, we will explore the significance of livestock quality as a key development factor in livestock of Uzbekistan.

REVITALIZING AGRICULTURE THROUGH ORGANIC PRACTICES: A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF THE SAMARKAND REGION'S TRANSITION AND CONSUMER DEMAND DYNAMICS
F.Ahrorov, PhD, Associate professor, Samarkand branch of Tashkent State University of Economics Abstract This paper examines the impact of agricultural reforms on the structure, methods, and sustainability of agricultural production, with a focus on the Samarkand region. Despite the reforms' success in achieving food security and propelling the nation towards self-sufficiency, they have also led to the degradation of agricultural lands due to intensive farming practices and prioritization of strategic crops. The paper discusses the significance of adopting eco-friendly practices and an adaptive framework for agricultural management to revitalize land quality and promote sustainable resource utilization. Through a comprehensive analysis using the Tobit model, descriptive statistics, and marginal analysis, the study explores consumer behavior towards organic products and the factors influencing their demand, based on primary data collected from the population of the Samarkand region. Results indicate a substantial expansion in areas certified under the international Good Agricultural Practices standard (Global GAP) and a shift towards organic farming, reflecting a commitment to sustainable agriculture and enhanced market competitiveness. The study identifies price, appearance, origin, packaging, and product size as significant determinants of organic food purchasing behavior, along with demographic influences. The findings offer crucial insights for developing targeted strategies to bolster the demand for organic products, highlighting the role of product characteristics and demographic factors in shaping consumer preferences. This research contributes to the literature on sustainable agriculture and consumer behavior, providing valuable perspectives for stakeholders in the organic food sector to drive the organic movement forward. Keywords: organic farming, sustainable agriculture, eco-friendly practices, consumer demand, Tobit model.
