Keywords: Toponyms, ethnotoponyms, Uzbek toponyms, Arabic toponyms, Mongolian toponyms, Turkish toponyms The population of Northern Tajikistan was made up mainly of Uzbeks, Tajiks and various Turkic-speaking peoples. When characterizing the ethnic composition of the population, the initial messages are the reports of Zakhiriddin Babur. According to him, in the 15th century the population consisted of Tajiks and Turks. It is known that toponyms arose in certain historical epochs, changed over time in form, and often in content, spread depending on specific historical events - population migration, wars, cultural, economic and linguistic communication. L.S.Tolstova notes that the peoples of Central Asia (now Central Asia) have much In common in the ways of their formation in ethno-historical development. Components belonging to different linguistic families took part in the long process of ethnogenesis of the peoples of this region. Even in the period of the primitive communal system, the languages of the Indo-European family were spread here.

  • Desk Study: Rural Sector Reform and Legal Aid in Tajikistan
    Desk Study: Rural Sector Reform and Legal Aid in Tajikistan June, 2008 KasWag AgriConsulting Worldwide Project 7F-00351.06.14 Executive Summary Agriculture is a key sector of the Tajik economy, accounting for 24% of GDP, 66% of employment, 26% of exports, and 39% of tax revenue (2004). Agricultural land in Tajikistan covers about 4.6 million hectares (ha), with 732,000 ha of irrigated area. Most rural households depend on their household plots for subsistence. Over 70% of horticulture output (about one million tons of fruits and vegetables) is produced on these household plots. The commercial livestock sector has essentially collapsed. Cattle, small stock, and poultry numbers have declined and livestock ownership has shifted to households, which own about 90% of all livestock, and are the dominant suppliers of milk, meat, and other livestock products. Under the Constitution, all land in Tajikistan is owned by the State and citizens receive various forms of use rights. Land reform has ostensibly been continuing for several years although the land reform program has failed to provide equitable and secure land-use rights to farmers due to fundamental flaws in the farm restructuring process and the continued command approach to farm management. Tajikistan’s economy is highly dependent on cotton production. Cotton is grown on 53% of the country’s irrigated farmland, and provides an estimated 60% of total agriculture output value. Key political and financial players are involved in the industry as processors and traders. However, cotton sector performance has been eroding due to pervasive market failures and strong government presence along the entire value chain.
