After the sharp rise in food prices over the past decade, which peaked in 2008, the situation has radically changed. In addition, the cultivation of crops for biofuel production has increased dramatically, and States heavily dependent on imports have attracted attention with large purchases of agricultural land. Despite the rapid economic recovery of recent years, Tajikistan’s economy is fragile, while the rural population continues to grow. These factors contribute to food insecurity and malnutrition, a major problem in poor families, especially away from cities and among children. In addition to poor pasture management and soil degradation, the climate crisis is affecting – extreme weather events such as droughts, mudslides, landslides, and floods are becoming more frequent. Cattle breeding plays a key role in Tajikistan’s agriculture and has great potential to combat hunger and nutrient deficiencies, especially for the poorer segments of the rural population, who often have access only to communal land. The tense situation in the agricultural market of Tajikistan has led to the fact that private and public investors have begun to show increased interest in the agricultural sector. Every year Tajikistan attracts foreign countries, including foreign organizations, to invest in agriculture in Tajikistan. The purpose of the article is to identify the role and volume of foreign investments in the agricultural sector of Tajikistan, as well as the position and support of the agricultural sector by the government of Tajikistan.
