In 2022, intensive fish farming will be launched in 10 thousand households throughout the country.

In accordance with the instructions of the president, clusters producing more than 80 tons of fish per year on a cooperative basis will be exempted from taxes for 3 years, and those who have attracted foreign specialists will receive partial compensation of costs.

The volume of loans allocated to domestic fish suppliers under the "Every family – entrepreneur" program will be doubled. Next year, 400 billion soums and $20 million will be allocated for these purposes.

Land tax and property tax for fish farm owners will be reduced by 50%, and they themselves will be transferred to the category of self-employed citizens.
