Exclusive report on the presence of the knowledge-based company “Modiran Tahlilgar Sepahan” at the Uzbekistan Agricultural Industry Exhibition 2025

Tashkent – ​​Uzbekistan | Azar 1404

 

With the financial support of the Innovation and Prosperity Fund, the knowledge-based company Sepahan Analyst Managers attended the Uzbekistan International Agricultural Industry Exhibition 2025 and, while examining export capacities, assessed the state of animal husbandry and opportunities for technological cooperation in this country. This working trip was carried out from 2 to 9 Azar 1404.

The company’s goals for participating in the international exhibition of Uzbekistan

With the aim of entering the Eurasian market, the company pursued the following missions:

1. Familiarization with the structure of Uzbek livestock farming, including distribution, livestock population and average herd size
2. Measuring the interest of livestock farmers in smart livestock farming technologies and equipment
3. Examining the purchasing power and investment level of livestock farmers
4. Assessing the conditions for establishing an official representative office in Tashkent
5. Analyzing the interest of Uzbek businessmen and traders in Iranian products
6. Examining the market share of competing countries, especially Russia, Turkey and China
7. Introducing the company and innovative Iranian products to industry activists in the Eurasian market

 

Report on activities and negotiations carried out at the exhibition

During the company’s presence in Tashkent, a series of specialized meetings and field visits were held:

The most important steps of the trip

• Conversations with livestock farmers about production challenges, new technologies and current needs of the industry
• Joint meeting with active companies from Iran, Uzbekistan, Turkey and China
• Meeting with the Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran to Uzbekistan
• Meeting with the Tashkent Chamber of Commerce
• Review of prices and market conditions of agricultural products

 

Key findings on the Uzbek livestock industry

The results of the surveys showed:

1. The level of livestock farming is much lower than expected

Livestock farms with over 1,000 heads in Uzbekistan are considered “mega farms”; while such units are considered small in Iran.

2. Structural weaknesses in veterinary medicine and disease control

• The geographical dispersion of livestock farms is not controlled
• There is no coherent veterinary medicine similar to Iranian standards
• The speed of disease transmission is high and information is poor

3. Important opportunities for the introduction of Iranian livestock farming technologies

• Livestock farmers’ interest in technology
• Positive confidence in the quality of Iranian products
• The ability to adapt Iranian production indicators and coefficients to the Uzbek environment
• Weak livestock farming knowledge and a serious need for training

4. The importance of the government’s role in decision-making

In many cases, livestock farmers make their decisions based on government policies; therefore, it is difficult to enter this market without the cooperation of the government.

5. Lack of information and statistical infrastructure

Unions, veterinary and breed centers are not up to date; this gap is a great opportunity for Iranian technologies to enter the field of data management and smart livestock farming.

6. Main challenges to entering the Uzbek market

• Problems with financial exchanges
• Weak internet
• Power outages
• High fuel prices
• Air pollution

Initial solutions include financial exchange through the Saderat Bank, barter transactions, and following up on the Uzbek government’s solutions to improve the internet.

Practical suggestions for creating services and support in the Uzbek market

According to the expectations of livestock farmers regarding technology support, four main paths have been suggested:

1. Establishing a joint service center by Iranian specialists

High quality / higher start-up costs

2. Establishing a service center by training local Uzbek forces

Lower cost / lower speed

3. Providing services on a factorial and case-by-case basis

Higher cost / desirable quality

4. Technology transfer and establishing a data center

High quality / requires investors

The company’s export plan for the next 1 to 2 years

Based on the market survey and opportunities created at the exhibition, Sepahan Managers and Analysts Company will follow three export paths:

1. Trial entry through limited projects

Objective: Assessing market reception and technology acceptance

Risk: Cost of attracting an audience and support

Solution: Using the support of the Iranian government and holding B2B meetings in the region

2. Cooperation with government institutions and unions of Uzbekistan

Objective: Implementation of the project with the support of the government

Risk: Misalignment of government and company goals

Solution: Holding official meetings at the same level and presenting Iran’s successful results in the field of data-driven animal husbandry

3. Attracting investors and implementing joint venture projects

Objective: Reducing costs and increasing the speed of market development

Risk: Finding suitable investors

Solution: Creating investment attractiveness through real data and sustainable economic models

Conclusion

The presence of the Knowledge-Based Sepahan Managers and Analysts Company at the Uzbekistan Agricultural Industry Exhibition 2025 created a good opportunity to analyze the country’s animal husbandry market and identify the routes for Iranian technologies to enter the Eurasian market.

The results of this trip show that, with targeted planning, the export of Iranian smart animal husbandry technology to Uzbekistan is not only possible, but also has significant growth potential over the next two years.
