ABSTRACT

This article describes that over the course of three years from 2022 to 2024, research was conducted on the culture of industrial cannabis in the soil and climatic conditions of the Khavast district of the Syrdarya region, where 5 cultivars were studied in a collection nursery. The agrochemical analysis of the soil, phenological observations, and biometric measurements were studied. Indo-selections were conducted in the nursery of the competitive test and 4 selections were studied. As a result, the productivity of technical cannabis varieties were studied in comparison with the standard Rodnik variety.With sufficient irrigation and observance of agrotechnology of cultivation, it is quite possible to successfully cultivate on weak and mediumsaline soils. Breeding work has been carried out by the method of individual selection of technical cannabis plants with the necessary improved characteristics for further research in order to create new local varieties for our Republic.
