BMB AGRO specializes in growing agricultural and export-oriented products. The application of modern technologies and scientific methods has significantly improved productivity. In addition to cotton and grain, the company also cultivates legumes and melons such as mung beans, beans, peas, watermelons, melons, and pumpkins.
Previously unused, saline, and low-yield lands were rehabilitated, resulting in yields of up to 35 centners of cotton and 80 centners of grain per hectare. The produce is cleaned, sorted, packaged, and exported to foreign countries, with some directed to the domestic market or other processing facilities.
In cooperation with regional farmers and the cluster system under BMB HOLDING, 5,000 hectares of mung beans, 2,000 hectares of beans, 1,500 hectares of melons, and 50 hectares of tomatoes have been cultivated. Melons are exported to Latvia and Poland, while legumes are mainly sent to China. So far this year, exports have totaled $2.4 million, with plans to reach $10 million by year-end.
The new processing facility has an annual capacity of 65,000 tons and is equipped with modern machinery from Turkey and China worth 6.5 billion soums. Alongside its economic mission, the enterprise also fulfills social responsibilities and plans to continue its charitable programs regularly.
