In the framework of the Year of Environmental Protection and Green Economy large-scale greening continues across the country. In the capital’s Bektemir district another green zone has been established.

The Head of State together with the representatives of state bodies and the public took part in tree planting.

Earlier this territory between Iykota, Manjuntol, Zilola, Rokhat and Ikbol mahallas remained underdeveloped. Now, owing to the united efforts of the residents, a new park is being created here. On three hectares of land 3 thousand trees and shrubs have been planted in accordance with the concept of forest gardening. Responsible services are assigned for their watering and care.

During the event, a warm conversation was held with representatives of the mahallas, the older generation and youth. The President expressed gratitude to all those who contributed to this noble project and congratulated those gathered on the upcoming Navruz holiday.

Within the framework of the beautification month announced on the initiative of the President, the mahallas are actively engaged in agricultural development and planting greenery.

It is expected to plant 125 million trees this spring. At the same time, special attention is paid to proper choice of planting sites and improvement of irrigation systems. The trees planted in the new park will be a continuation of this large-scale initiative.

In accordance with the State Program of the Year of Environmental Protection and Green Economy, 18 forestry farms specializing in the cultivation of seedlings will be established this year. In them, based on the principle of “science - project - practice”, genetic breeding work will be strengthened and plantations will be expanded. In addition, a platform called “Yashil Olam” will be launched to enable online purchase of seedlings.
