Overview of Sustainable Drip Irrigation Systems in Central Asia

\nWater scarcity is becoming an increasingly acute problem around the world, especially in the field of agriculture. Different kinds of irrigation system, e.g., drip irrigation, are developed and actively introduced to save water resources in arid regions. The study aims to review articles devoted to the implementation of drip irrigation systems in Central Asia countries. The array of the studies was retrieved from Scopus database for the 17-year period between 2007 and 2023 and totalled 32 articles. For the purpose of the study, all publications were categorized in several groups. Publications in scholarly journals were listed by publication numbers and citations. Relevant articles concentrated on drip irrigation in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. To specify the regions the articles originated from, two maps were drawn: the first one is for Kazakhstan with regions and the second one for Uzbekistan. All the publications were reviewed by their methodology and received some feedbacks. The article researched regions of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan and gave recommendations on the implementation of drip irrigation systems in regions of the two countries.\n
