Customers' and clients' strong comprehension of the financial advantages of deploying drip irrigation technology is essential to its widespread adoption. In order to assess the degree of profitability, payback periods, and overall economic viability of implementing this water-saving technology from the viewpoints of farmers and the state, a thorough and comprehensive computation of the economic and financial indicators of the drip irrigation system's deployment and use is necessary.

Such a tool is what this report is meant to be.

The nine chapters of the proposed analytical report include information on the economic and environmental advantages of drip irrigation in Uzbekistan's irrigated agricultural conditions, state support measures for the installation of drip irrigation systems in the country, such as financial aid for farms that have already implemented drip irrigation, conclusions, and suggestions.
