The report contains a sub-section on climate change as a challenge for sustainable agriculture, as well as a chapter on climate change and the environment. It covers policymaking, planning and implementation, the financing of environmental policies and projects, and the integration of environmental concerns into economic sectors, in particular water management, land management, energy and climate change.

According to the report, Uzbekistan is the only Central Asian country with six projects registered by the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) Executive Board.

The report notes that Uzbekistan undertook significant steps in order to adjust energy policy to the new realities imposed by climate change, including tariff-based and non-tariff-based measures.

It concludes with the recommendation to accelerate the adoption and implementation of measures to reduce the wasteful use of water and energy and to encourage more sustainable forms of agricultural development to ensure the country’s sustainable development and stability.
