Abstract
Three economists, based on World-Bank-sponsored field research in 1994 and 1995, review land use and water policies in Uzbekistan and assess their feasibility with respect to current agrarian reform initiatives. Initial sections of the paper focus on cropping patterns, land tenure systems, and water management practices inherited from the Soviet period. Subsequent sections are devoted to describing processes of land reform and evaluating production and resource use efficiency in Uzbekistan in the period following the dissolution of the USSR. Final sections explore the potential role of state intervention and interstate water basin management initiatives in shaping land and water policies.
