  • Inson o'zining butun mavjudligi davomida dunyo haqida to'liq tasavvurga ega bo'lmasdan va faqat bir lahzalik vazifalarni yaratishga intilgan , xoh u oziq-ovqat ishlab chiqarish, xoh atom elektr stantsiyasini qurish bo'lsin. Har safar yaratilish va rivojlanish vektori inson o'z ehtiyojlariga muvofiq foydalanadigan atrof-muhitga qaratilgan. Hozirgi vaqtda insoniyatning muammolari, resurslarning ortib borayotgan qismini ishlab chiqarishni rivojlantirishga emas, balki atrof-muhitni saqlashga sarflash kerakligi bilan keskinlashmoqda. Aks holda, uning ifloslanishi yalpi milliy mahsulotning o'sishini sekinlashtira boshlaydi va uni oshirishga investitsiyalar samaradorligi pasayadi. Biroq, hozirgacha faqat dunyodagi eng boy davlatlar atrof-muhitni saqlash bo'yicha keng ko'lamli dasturlarni amalga oshirishga qodir. Eng kambag'al davlatlar bunga qurbi yetmaydi.

  • Back in the early 70s, while studying at a secondary school, at geography lessons, we, with bated breath, listened with admiration to a teacher who talked about the Aral Sea, which was famous for its richest natural reserves. The incomparable isolation and diversity of the Aral Sea did not leave anyone indifferent. Having entered the 21st century, the Republic of Uzbekistan, like other states, has faced the most serious problems in the field of the environment. Among them, one of the most global is the environmental problem. Life in the chemical world has become more comfortable for a person, but at the same time it has acquired additional elements of risk to his life and health. The whole planet has long been concerned about the problem of the Aral Sea, the restoration of the vital water resource of which is directed by the minds of scientists and practitioners around the world. The Aral Sea was the fourth largest lake in the world, and the Aral Sea zone was considered a prosperous and biologically rich natural environment.

  • The urgency and relevance of the theme of dissertation. The freshwater resources of the globe form only 3 percent of the total planetary volume of water. Nowadays, a shortage of these resources becomes a global problem. It is known that 87 percent of the world's freshwater is used in agriculture.
    A suite of measures aiming at effective use of irrigation water, improving its quality, applying water-saving methods, techniques and technologies of irrigation of the agricultural crops is carried out in Uzbekistan. Furrow irrigation is widely used in the country. Under a furrow irrigation, the losses of the irrigation tail-end water, actual physical evapotranspiration and infiltration can be reduced by the implementation of water-saving techniques and technologies. In this regard, it is important to implement a technology of irrigation of cotton and other crops by introducing furrows mulched with black polyethylene film and wheat straws.
    Application of mulch with opaque and water-proof materials leads to increased concentration of carbon dioxide and hydrocarbon gases, improved respiration of soil macro- and microorganisms and accelerated biochemical processes in the soil root zone of cotton. These soil gases accelerate the formation of mineral and organic acids, which in turn arc involved in the conversion of sparingly soluble phosphates into the readily soluble forms in the soil. As a result, the losses of gaseous forms of nitrogen fertilizers arc reduced, efficiency of nitrogen nutrition of plants is increased, which results in increased yields of cotton and other crops. Irrigation of cotton with mulched furrow helps reducing actual physical evapotranspiration and erosion of topsoil layer, hence contributing to water saving and increasing raw cotton yields.
    To adopt a water-saving technology of cotton in accordance with the Decree of the President of Uzbekistan №PP-1958 "On additional measures to ensure further improvement of ameliorative conditions of irrigated areas and rational water resources use for the period of 2013-2017" in 19 April 2013, the decree of Cabinet of Ministers DCM №261 "On measures to improve the formation and implementation of ameliorative land reclamation programs" adopted in November 28, 2008 and a technology of cotton irrigation through furrows mulched with black polyethylene film should be implemented. Elaboration of this technology is the basis for this dissertation.
    The aim of research is optimization of water consumption of cotton with application of water- and resource-saving technologies using mulched furrows and developing practical recommendations for crop production.
    Scientific novelty of the research is as follows:
    Methods of accurate and rapid determination of soil moisture using modem measuring instruments (neutron moisture meter, tensiometer) and under cotton irrigation through the furrows mulched using black polyethylene film and winter wheat straws were developed for the first time;
    Saving of irrigation water and fuel was identified for the first time, high cotton yields of good quality cultivated under irrigation along the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film and winter wheat straws were obtained on the fields planted with the cotton variety Navruz in typical sierozem soils and An-Bayaut-2 on salt-affected gray meadow soils;
    The advantages of soil mulching, which will reduce the actual physical evapotranspiration, improve water-physical soil properties, hence favoring an intensive growth and development of the above-ground parts of the cotton plants, were determined;
    A positive effect of soil mulching on soil temperature, the gaseous soil composition and its distribution in the soil profile, quantity of useful groups of soil microorganisms were estimated for the first time;
    A mathematical model describing the dependence of carbon dioxide emissions from the soil surface of cotton fields from the quantity of macro- and micro-organisms, soil density and moisture, was developed for the first time;
    An adaptation of theoretically justified methodology of estimation of irrigation norms and water consumption of cotton (FAO-56 methodology) in various soil and climatic conditions (typical sierozem soils, gray meadow soils, width of row spacing, duration of growing season), irrigation technologies (irrigation with water supply into each furrow and alternate furrow), the degree of mulching (bare soil, mulching of 50% of cotton plantation) were done.
    An effect of the cotton irrigation technology with mulched furrows on the economic efficiency of cotton cultivation was identified.
    CONCLUSIONS
    1. In order to achieve water saving during the cultivation of cotton in conditions of irrigation water shortage and global climate change, to ensure a uniform distribution of the soil moisture along the entire length of the furrows, increase the irrigation efficiency, prevent the fertile topsoil layer and nutrients from irrigational erosion, and save fuel and lubricants, it is appropriate to implement the water- and resource-saving irrigation technologies through the introduction of furrows mulched with black polyethylene film.
    2. In conditions of the typical sierozem soils of the Tashkent province, at the beginning of the growing season, the average humus contents in the 0-30 cm soil layer were 0.770%, total nitrogen 0.076% and phosphorus 0.113%, while in the 0-50 cm soil layer, these values were 0.672, 0.066 and 0.100%, respectively. In conditions of the gray-meadow soils of the Syrdarya province, these values in the soil layers of 0-30 and 0-50 cm were 1.131-0.955% of average humus contents, 0.131-0.094% of the total nitrogen and 0.132-0.104% of phosphorus. Evaluation of the nutrient contents of the soils in the research sites showed that these soils belong to the low fertility category.
    3. Assessment of the sol bulk density in typical sierozem soils at the end of the growth season in the 0-30 and 0-50 cm layers indicated that these values increased by 0.03-0.02 g cm'3. In conditions of the gray-meadow soils, at the end of the growing season the bulk density in the 0-30 cm in the treatment of the conventional irrigation increased by 0.05 g cm'3, while in the treatment of irrigation into the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film and straw, the bulk density increased by 0.02-0.03 g cm'3. Lesser soil compaction in the treatment of irrigation into the mulched furrows took place due to the reduced row cultivations, conducting them during the optimal dates and water applications for irrigation by the optimal norms.
    4. Analyses of the meteorological observations in the "Akkavak" station for the past 89 years showed an increase of the average annual air temperature by 1 °C, of the average annual precipitation from 450 to 600 mm (by 150 mm), relative humidity from 53 to 68% (15%), decrease of the deficit of potential evaporation by 250 mm (27.0%) for the period of April-September, and by 187 mm (26.0%) for the period of May-August, of potential evaporation by 18.5 cm (1850 m3 ha'1) or by 17.8%.
    5. In conditions of the typical sierozem soils with high slope of the land surface in the Tashkent province, water saving under irrigation of cotton of the Navruz variety through furrows mulched with polyethylene film estimated by the FAO-56 methodology was 847 m3 ha’1 or 22%, while the actual water saving was 1361 m3 ha’1 or 34% (on average 1104 m3 ha’1 or 28%). Irrigation through the furrows mulched with straw, the estimated water saving was 893 m3 ha’1 or 23 %, while the actual water saving was 1350 m3 ha’1 or 35% (on average 457 mJ ha'1 or 29 %).
    The most efficient water-saving technology of the water application in the old irrigated gray-meadow soils of the Syrdarya region was the treatment with irrigation of cotton of the AN Bayaut-2 variety through the 90 cm row spacings mulched with polyethylene black film, where the estimated water saving amounted to 652 m3 ha'1 or 43.2%, while the actual saving was 600 m3 ha’1 or 37.4% (on average 626 m3 ha’1 or 23.8%).
    Therefore, application of mulching the furrows with the black polyethylene film appears efficient in the topographically flat areas of the Syrdarya province with the slopes of 0.002-0.003, while in the cotton growing areas of the Tashkent province with the slope of 0.01 the efficiency of the application of surface mulching with black polyethylene film increased by 12% and with wheat straws by 5.2%.
    6. During the experiments, the irrigation rates into the furrows mulched with black plastic film and wheat straw were reduced compared to the rates of the conventional furrow irrigation. In conditions of the typical sierozem soils under mulching with black plastic fdm and straw and the soil moisture regime of 70-70-60% FC, the irrigation rates were on average lower by 184 m3 ha’1 (4.2%), 160 mJ ha’1 (3.6%), 1066 m3 ha'1 (27.9%) and 1108 m3 ha'1 (29.0%) compared to the moisture regime of 65-65-60%. Saving of the irrigation water in the treatments with application of mulching and soil moisture regime of 65-65-60% amounted to 556 m ha’1 or 12.7%, while with the soil moisture regime of 70-70-60% to 582 m3 ha'1 or 13.2% compared to conventional furrow irrigation.
    In the treatments with water application into the furrows mulched at the top with black polyethylene fdm and bottom with straw and 50-50-30 cm of the soil layers the irrigation rates in the 5th and 6th treatments averaged 2858 m3 ha'1, water saving was 1004-1040 m3 ha’1 under irrigation into the conventional furrows and 350-402 m3 ha’1 under water application into the furrows mulched at the top with black polyethylene fdm and bottom with straw.
    In conditions of the typical sierozem soils and irrigation into the conventional furrows the achieved water saving was 2220 m3 ha’1 or 25.1%, whereas in the treatments of irrigation into the furrows mulched with black polyethylene fdm the water saving was 1182 nF ha'1 or 24.3%, in the treatment with irrigation into the alternate furrows the saving was 551 m3 ha'1 or 20.4% and 540 m3 ha'1 or 19.9%, respectively. Similar pattern was observed in the experiments conducted in the gray-meadow soils of the Syrdarya province.
    7. Physical evaporation of soil moisture was 733, 717 and 680 m3 ha'1 higher in the treatments of irrigation into each furrow (treatments 1,2,3,) than in the treatments with irrigation into alternate furrows (treatments 4,5,6). These values under conventional furrow irrigation were 1690 and 955 nf ha’1, whereas in the treatments with furrow mulching with fdm the rates were 1592 and 765 nf ha'1 and with straw 1344 and 664 m3 ha’1, respectively.
    8. The highest amount of soil microorganisms (85.6-207.8 mil. efu/g) in the cotton rhizosphere was observed in the treatments of the furrows mulched with polyethylene film . Thus, black plastic cover enables the formation of favorable air, water, temperature and nutrient regimes for the development of the soil microorganisms.
    9. Analysis of the CO2 concentration dynamics in the soil air during the growing season of cotton showed that the highest rates of CO2 gas emissions (0.87 %) were observed under the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film and water application into the alternate furrows. Obviously, mulching the furrows with black polyethylene film and applying water into the alternate furrows helps creating optimal aeration conditions in the rhizosphere of cotton, respiration of living organisms, plant root system and useful soil microorganisms is increased, which in turn leads to increased concentrations of CO2 in the soil.
    10. In the treatments 3, 4 and 7, 8 under water application regime of 65-65-60% and 70-70-60% from field water capacity, the high crop growth rates, development and accumulation of fruit elements were achieved. In September, the average number of bolls was 9.8-10.2 and 10.3-11.0 and the bolls opening amounted to 45.9-50.0 and 52.4-58.2%, respectively.
    The advantage of irrigation into the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film over the conventional furrow irrigations into each furrow, into the furrows mulched with straw as well as into the alternate furrows was clearly established in this research: the average number of cotton bolls was 9.2-14.5, including 3.6-8.0 opened bolls or 39.1-55.0%.
    11. The ratios of physical moisture evaporation and transpiration of cotton under the conventional furrow irrigation methods of 34:66 and 30:70 corresponds to the values observed under traditional cultivation practices. However, irrigation into the mulched furrows changes this ratio substantially to 4.4:95.6 in favor of transpiration, especially in the treatments with a full coverage of the soil surface with black plastic film. In this treatment, physical evaporation is reduced by 1515 m3 ha'1 or 89.6% compared to the control treatment.
    12. In conditions of the typical sierozem soils under the irrigation regimes of 65-65-60% and 70-70-60% from field water capacity, the highest crop yields were obtained in the treatments of irrigation into the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film or straw, in which the cotton yield increased by 4.9-6.8 and 6.1-8.1 c ha'1 compared to the conventional irrigation methods. All treatments with the irrigation regimes of 70-70-60% from field water capacity prevailed over the treatments with the irrigation regimes of 65-65-60% from field capacity with yield increase of 0.6-3.5 c ha'1.
    The highest yields of the field experiments in the typical sierozem soils were obtained in the treatments with the furrow tops mulched with black polyethylene film and bottoms mulched with straw (treatments 5-6), in which yield increase was 4.7-6.7 c ha'1 compared to the treatments with conventional furrow irrigation (treatments 1-2) and with irrigation into the furrows with open tops and bottoms mulched with straw (treatments 3-4).
    The highest yields were achieved in both soil and climatic conditions in typical sierozem and sierozem-meadow soils with application of mulching with black plastic film and straw and with irrigations into each furrow and alternate furrows, in which the yields were increased by 3.2-7.0 and 2.2-2.5 c ha'1 compared to the yields obtained with conventional irrigation. In the treatments with irrigation into each furrow yield was increased by 2.8-3.6 and 2.8-3.5 c ha'1 compared to the alternate furrow irrigation.
    13. The highest yields and the profitability of cotton were observed in the typical sierozem soils in the treatments of irrigation into each furrow (1-3) and alternate furrow (4-6). Maximal yield performance was obtained under irrigation into the furrows mulched with black polyethylene film (47.1 and 55.8%), followed by the treatments with irrigations into the furrows mulched with wheat straw (42.8-50.9 %) and the control treatments with the conventional irrigation methods (30.4 and 33.2 %).
    Similar patterns were achieved in the experiments conducted in the sierozem-meadow soils of the Syrdarya province, where the highest yields were obtained in the treatments with irrigation into each furrow, but profitability was lower than in the all treatments of the conventional furrows, the furrows mulched with film and straw and irrigation into the alternate furrows (40.1, 49.5, 43.4% and 48.1; 57.2; 53.7%, respectively).
    Based on the results of the research, the following recommendations arc suggested:
    14. In conditions of the typical sierozem soils and slightly saline sierozemmeadow soils of the sulfate type, with irrigation into the alternate furrows and during cotton growth season, it is recommended to apply the irrigation rates in the amount of 450-500 m3 ha'1 for medium- and heavy-textured typical sierozem soils and 350 - 400 m3 ha'1 for the light- and medium-textured sierozem-meadow soils.
    15. Mulching of furrows with crop residues of 1.5-2.0 t ha'1, left after of winter wheat harvest in the first and second decade of June showed the high efficiency in the cotton growing farms.
    16. It is recommended to apply irrigation through mulched furrow with black polyethylene film during the budding stage of cotton, under the formation of true 6-8 leaves: in the row spacing of 90 cm wide along the back-wheel lines of the three-wheel tractor, in the row spacing of 60 cm wide along the inter-wheel spaces. The film with a thickness of 10-12 micrometers should be 10 cm wider than the row spacing.

  • Topicality and relevance of the dissertation theme. Water is the main limiting strategic resource in arid areas that determine the development of all sectors of the economy. Addressing issues of water supply has become an essential and complex contemporary scientific-technical problem, as «...coming to 2030 global deficiency of water resources in the planet will reach to 40 %...Global consumption of water in 2050 will increase up to 55 % »'. Population explosion and intensive development of economy intensifies shortage of water resources. Especially, that applies to areas with limited natural water resources where stable development depends on water transboardcrcd rivers.
    In this regard, during the years of independence, the leadership of the Republic of Uzbekistan adopted a number of decisions to address the urgent problems of the country. «Water is considered as one of the main causes of climatic changes. Fighting against escalating risks and uncertainties of natural disasters is essential for elaboration of methodic and effective mechanisms of regulations»
    With climatic global changes, development of advanced technic solutions for improving hydroccologic and meliorative-hydrologic conditions of irrigated lands in arid areas is required, including modernized technologies and methods of managing dynamics of moisture and salination conditions in aerated zones, subirrigation, water demineralization and soil melioration, principles of struggle against salination and erosion on the bases of complex experimental-theoretical analysis and forecasting main irrigation tendencies, that arc needed for practical usage by irrigational and agricultural organizations.
    This dissertation research serves as fulfillment of tasks, listed in the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan (№ UP - 3932 of 29.10. 2007) «On measures on radical improvement of land reclamation», the Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan from 19 april 2013 № PP - 1958 «On measures of further improvement of irrigated land and water management for the period 2013-2017, » Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers R. Uz from 20 may 1999 № 259 «On holding irrigational-mcliorative works for the period of 1999-2000», from 21 july 2003 № 320 «On Improvement of Water Management», from 19 march 2013 № 82 "On Approval of the order of water use and consumption in the Republic of Uzbekistan" and other standardizcd-lcgal ducumcnts, accepted in this field.
    Purpose of research is to develop waterproof hydroccologic technologies and meliorative-hydrologic methods.
    The scientific novelty of research is as follows:
    enhanced the principles of the creation of anti-filtering screen at a given depth of groundwater;
    scientifically proved through sub-irrigation development of devices for controlling runoff and drainage schemes «Cascade»;
    proposed water saving and soil-protective method, preventing irrigation erosion in flat gypsum soils;
    for the first time recommended chemical meliorants, depressing soda salinization of soil with forming effective fertilizing- chili saltpetre;
    developed metods of water demineralization;
    suggested the technology of increasing efficiency of precipitation, irrigation and groundwater plants, which in-leads to the prevention of negative phenomena, improve productivity and increase the aeration zone energy (exergy);
    CONCLUSION
    1. Strategically-limiting nature of the region's water resources is justified by theoretical analysis of a representative period, the priority of water management characteristics of mathematical statistics, which confirms the correctness of the differentiation of natural water conditions and is the first experience of area-regional zoning in modem terminology. It is a type of application and geographical regionalization is to allocate natural water complexes (PVCs), considering historical administrative boundaries with a single natural base, which revealed new negative hydro-ecological and hydrological processes, to develop a set adaptive solutions for each upgraded PVHR.
    2. Proven fundamental theory of metamorphism chemical composition of water to predict the state of irrigated lands of the arid zone. Updated formed ionsalt composition of water resources in the region. It is shown that metamorphism chemical types of groundwater well consistent with the types of soil salinity (at V.A.Kovda et al.).
    3. The basic laws metamorphose waters in the region, which grow in the opposite direction (leaning toward hydro carbonate type) in the following order: surface water and groundwater PVHR upper- middle PVHR groundwater and sub - bottom PVHR groundwater. This was the theoretical basis for the projections of a new salinity (alkalinity) of soil at watcring-NII. It was found that the local areas may receive soda salinity in the above manner (3-5 years), t. E., To the geographic shift hydrocarbon groundwater in the southern and south-western directions, which is a form of modem desertification areas.
    4. Substantiated the fundamental meaning of the "critical depth interval of occurrence of GW on the main reclamation - hydrological factors - groundwater salinity. Experimental and theoretical method developed principles for the determination of the NKR.
    5. It was revealed that a qualitative change in the composition of the salts in the aeration zone by prolonged leaching irrigation regime on the background and the natural drainage leads to increased removal of non-toxic salts. This process is activated by leaching calcium sulfate (gypsum), which prevents the development of processes of alkalinity. In this connection it is necessary to change the ideology of drainage systems through the introduction of sub-irrigation technology in the range of 2 - 3 g /1 total mineralization GW.
    This allowed for the first time the arid zones of the region to develop a modernized devices to regulate the drainage flow in order to introduce subirrigation through groundwater management by sticking to the depression of the curve in the range of the critical depth of the GW. We also propose the optimal formula for calculating the cascade devices. These facilities arc also recommended to arrange for sprinklers and river network.
    6. An ecological and economical way of water demineralization, Ba-vanny on gas hydrate technology as one of the fundamental solutions to the water problem by preserving and protecting the resources of fresh surface water and groundwater in the arid zone by utilizing miner-ized water (2 - 3, 200 - 300 g /1).
    7. Developed a method of soil desalinization chemical amcliorants it solves the dual problem of reclamation - soda salinization and suppresses the formation of nitrogen fertilizer blends (Chilean nitrate NaNO3).
    8. In order to improve reclamation- hydrological conditions of local zones of aeration is provided a method of isolation of groundwater within the hydrogeological windows to prevent flooding (or draining) and salinization, which is due to thinning (or infiltration) mineralized GW in irrigated areas.
    9. An analysis of experimental and theoretical studies Mclio-way radio has reduced the soil's physical and productive increase evaporation (transpiration), to improve the conditions of hydro-aeration zone, increase drought tolerance, overall biological activity, energy capacity, connectivity and productivity of soils.
    10. Sound technologies subirrigation, demineralization and grind-orations contributes to accomplish the total water circulation technology in the scheme of complex use and protection (integrated management) of water.
    11. Theoretical and field studies revealed patterns of irrigation erosion in flat gypsum soils. Designed upgraded method of combating comprising conjunction with the sowing of crops convolutions making up the bottom of the cutting grooves on the surface of the natural soil amcliorants (together or separately) - expanded vermiculite and firing (or) perlite and montmorillonite, bentonite and kaolin.
    12. Identified patterns and results of this work should be considered identical subarid parts of the world.
