In this episode of the CAN-SET Podcast, we explore how Uzbekistan is navigating the complex intersection of agriculture, energy, and climate resilience. With farming practices that are both water- and energy-intensive, the country faces a critical challenge — and opportunity — to green its rural economy.
Join us as we discuss:
The energy footprint of Uzbekistan’s agriculture sector
Innovative uses of renewables like solar and biogas in farming
Policy shifts and barriers to clean energy adoption in rural areas
How the energy transition can be made inclusive for smallholder farmers, women, and youth
This conversation sheds light on the potential to build a more sustainable and equitable future from the ground up.
