Enterprise "Bukhoro pakhta urugchiligi” LLC “Bukhoro Agroсluster” in Gijduvon district has been preparing high-quality pubescent and bare cotton seeds for cotton growers of the Bukhara region since 2005. In the early years, this enterprise had the capacity to produce up to 28 tons of bare and up to 50 tons of pubescent seeds per day.
Over the past years, the company's production line has been reconstructed several times, and new innovative machines have been introduced into it in order to increase the volume and improve the quality of bare seeds. In particular, instead of the 6 seed-drying machines used in 2005-2007 by 4 SOM-M, in the 2007-2008 season, 3 UCHDM machines with 2 times higher productivity were installed. In 2010, an additional installation of another UCHDM machine in the workshop achieved a maximum capacity of 38 tons per day.
In subsequent years, another UCHDM machine was additionally installed in the workshop, thereby bringing the total number of machines for seed stripping to 5 units, and the maximum productivity was 48 tons per day.
The installation of the second Petkus K-531 calibrator on the production line in 2010 allowed sorting up to 48 tons of seeds per day.
In recent years, the use of effective preparations such as Scarlet, Potassium Humate, produced by the Russian Shchelkovo plant, has been established for seed etching. Taking into account the fact that these drugs have a longer duration of exposure, and also have a positive effect on the germination and development of plants, they give a better effect in the season than traditional remedies.
In preparation for the 2020-2021 season, instead of 2 outdated Petkus K-531 calibrators, 1 Jubus L-JS-8 machine with a capacity of 4 tons was installed and the ability of the enterprise to sort bare seeds was increased to 96 tons per day.
By the 2021 season, the total number of UCHDM machines in the workshop has increased to 6 pieces and, thus, the productivity of seed stripping has been brought to 64 tons per day. As a result, the total capacity of the enterprise has reached 6 thousand tons of seeds per year.
At this time, the company has begun work on preparing seeds for the 2022 harvest. This season, the company's team will have to prepare 2,480 tons of bare and 380 tons of pubescent cotton seeds only for the needs of the farms of LLC Bukhoro Agro Cluster.
