The development of agriculture in Uzbekistan is critical for the nation’s economy, food security, and employment. The scientific supply system, which includes research, innovation, and the transfer of technology to agricultural practices, plays a significant role in improving productivity and sustainability. However, the financing mechanism for this system faces significant challenges that affect its effectiveness and long-term growth. This article investigates the current state of financing in the agricultural scientific supply system in Uzbekistan, evaluates the challenges within existing financing models, and proposes improved mechanisms. By analyzing successful international practices and current economic trends, the study outlines a model that aligns funding strategies with the needs of Uzbekistan’s agricultural sector.
