Introduction:

The decree of the President of the

Republic of Uzbekistan dated January 10, 2023 "On
measures to support the activities of cotton-textile
clusters, fundamentally reform the textile and sewing-
knitting industry, and further increase the export
potential of the sector" was signed [1].

The cotton textile industry is one of the most
important sectors of our country's economy. It also
serves as a locomotive for the development of regions,
the creation of production capacity in rural areas, the
provision of employment, as well as the increase of
export volumes. Therefore, at the initiative of the head
of our state, at the new stage of reforms, the cotton-
textile process was fundamentally renewed and the
cluster system was introduced [2].

Needless to say, this innovative method of combining
agriculture and industry quickly paid off. Importantly,
along with the increase in the volume of production of
industrial raw materials and the improvement of their
quality, complete processing of the fiber was achieved
in our own country. In this, 134 clusters operating in
the system of the Association of Cotton-Textile
Clusters of Uzbekistan became the main force.
Currently, clusters are actively engaged in cotton
cultivation, harvesting, primary and deep processing,
and export.

Thanks to the cluster method, about 350 large
factories have been launched. As a result, the recycling
rate of kalava yarn was increased to 45%. In the near
future, this indicator is expected to reach 100 percent.
Because the head of our state has given the clusters
the task of exporting finished products with added
value, not semi-finished products [3].

According to the decree, the participation of
representatives of well-known brands in exhibitions
and fairs held in our country is ensured. It is envisaged
that the costs in this regard will be covered from the
funds of the Export Support Fund.

Textile and sewing-knitting enterprises were allowed
to transfer up to 100,000 US dollars per year abroad
without separate decisions to establish a "Trade
House" and store abroad. Small industrial zones
specialized in textiles were established in 4 regions of
our republic - Andijan, Namangan, Kashkadarya and
Tashkent regions. Also, small industrial zones
specialized in textiles will be established on the basis of
empty cotton terminals on the balance sheet of the
former "Uzpakhtasanoat" JSC. Some buildings and
structures are used as warehouses for imported raw
materials. [4]

METHODS

During 2023 alone, it is expected to increase the level

of utilization of sewing and knitting production facilities
from 65 percent to 81 percent, to fill the main part of
35,000 vacant jobs at the expense of representatives of
the population entered in the social registers, and
ultimately to increase the volume of exports by almost
2 times.

There are enough opportunities to conquer this
milestone. Most importantly, specific measures are
being taken to fulfill this task. That is, 225.6 million
dollars of investment will be attracted by cotton-textile
clusters, and 331 large projects will be implemented. As
a result, it is planned to create 32,100 new jobs.

Therefore, several scientists are conducting scientific
research on the cotton-textile cluster.

Several proposals of scientists have been put forward to
increase the economic and export potential of textile
clusters. A. Soliev and Z. Khakimov, one of our local
scientists, wrote in their article "Cluster theory and the
possibilities of using the experience of the countries
applying it in practice in Namangan region"[3]. The
reason for the selection of these scientists in this area is
the high volume of production of ready-made products
of the region.

American scientists M. Porter "Theory of competitive
style" [5], M. Enright, S. Resenfeld, P. Maskell and M.
Lorentsen "the concept of regional clusters" [6], A.
Marshall "Theory of industrial zones" [7] , P. Becatin put
forward "Theories of Italian industrial enterprises" [8].
In the theories of foreign scientists mentioned above, it
is emphasized that clusters are a system closely related
to the activities of educational, scientific, technological,
economic and other service entities, which are highly
effective in realizing competitive advantage.

According to the press service of the Ministry of
Agriculture, this year, 140 cotton-textile clusters and 32
thousand farms planted 1 million 12 thousand hectares
of land in 136 districts, based on the recommendations
of field scientists, 28 regionalized and 17 promising
cotton varieties suitable for the natural climatic
conditions of the regions. planted The area of 8 cotton
varieties with high yield and fiber quality was expanded
to 157,000 hectares, and the area of early varieties was
increased to 78% [9].

RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

In order to further develop cotton-textile clusters in
Namangan region, our President paid great attention
and several decrees and projects were implemented.

In accordance with the Decree No. PF-60 of the
President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated January
28, 2022 "On the Development Strategy of New
Uzbekistan for 2022-2026", and also in order to meet
the need for qualified personnel in the textile industry

in the republic: the Namangan Textile Industry
Institute was established in the city of Namangan [10].

Table 1 below presents information on projects to be
implemented by cotton-textile clusters operating in
Namangan region in 2023-2024. If we look at the

example of Namangan district alone, "Tashbulok Teks"
LLC, located in the district, established the production of
textile products. In 2023-2024, the annual project
capacity is planned to produce 1.0 million sets of bed
linen, and more than 200 jobs have been created.

Namangan region is one of the rapidly developing
regions of our republic's textile industry, and today
2420 textile and sewing-knitting enterprises are
operating in the region. According to the specialization
of existing enterprises in the production of types of
products, there are 20 enterprises producing yarn, 295
manufacturers of gauze, 42 manufacturers of knitted
fabrics, 123 manufacturers of knitted products, 1577
enterprises producing sewing products, 29 enterprises
producing socks, and 334 others. is organizing. Of
these, there are 89 large textile and sewing-knitting
industry enterprises in the region, producing 102.9
thousand tons of yarn, 163.0 million sq.m. yarn yarn,
15.0 thousand tons of knitted fabric and fluffy fabric,
130 million has the capacity to produce ready-made
sewing and knitting products [11].

Today, 19 cotton fiber processing enterprises with an
annual capacity of 102.3 thousand tons of cotton fiber

are operating in the region.

Also, in 2022, 317 textile and sewing-knitting
enterprises in the region exported products worth 420.0
million dollars. "Textile Finance Namangan" LLC,

accordance with the implementation of relevant
government decisions. cotton-textile production was
established on a total of 63.4 thousand hectares of land.

CONCLUSIONS

To sum up, as you can see above, a cotton-textile cluster
was established in all cotton fields of the region. The
question of forming clusters in the system of textile and
light industry of Uzbekistan will be expedient if it is
implemented not on the national level, but on the basis
of specific economic and social conditions in the regions

- provinces, based on the essence of the cluster theory.
Foreign manufacturers are trying to reduce costs due
to the production of mixed products in order to
overcome competition in world markets. This is giving
the expected effect. On the initiative of our President,
various benefits are given to support the cluster and
other production enterprises. At the heart of this is the
goal of increasing the production volume of high-
added-value finished textile products by 2.1 times and
the export rate by 2.6 times through deep processing
of cotton fiber, in a word, to bring the cotton-textile
industry to a new stage.
