Botir MADIYOROV from “Xalq sozi”. Khairullo Maksumov, a neighborhood "Bog'bon" (mahalla) resident in Kuvasay (Fergana region), set up a greenhouse on 2 acres of his homestead and expanded it to an additional 4 acres of unused land in his neighborhood. He accomplished this after receiving a 33 million UZS preferential loan from the bank as part of the "Every Family is an Entrepreneur" program.

Recently, Khairullo Maksumov took another 100 million UZS preferential loan to expand his greenhouse operations. With this investment, he introduced a modern heating system and drip irrigation technology, allowing him to run the greenhouse efficiently year-round and boost his income.

“We have started cultivating rare citrus fruits in the family-owned ‘Khazina’ greenhouse,” he says. “Three varieties of bananas and kiwi saplings have been growing steadily in the greenhouse in a short time. One of the banana varieties, native to Mexico, has adapted well to the local climate."

In addition, three types of papaya brought from Turkey have started bearing fruit. Papayas grow up to 2.5–3 meters and begin to yield fruit within two years. The fruit tastes similar to melon and typically weighs around one kilogram on average.

Currently, the homeowner has imported Arabian pomegranate and is conducting research on achieving abundant yields in local conditions, as well as developing a nursery sector for cultivating kiwi and bananas.
