Abstract
This paper discusses the current problems of the irrigated agriculture in the left bank of the Kzylorda region, the lower Syrdarya River in Kazakhstan. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Sovkhozes and Kolkhozes, which were the basic unit of agricultural production during the past Soviet Union period, have been restructured to cooperative farms or private farms. It was revealed that privatization process of the state farms was suffering from the following problems. 1) Reduction of productivity due to the lack of agricultural machines and fuel, 2) uncontrol (less control) of the rotational cropping-pattern resulting in the increase in the rice cropped area in the farmland cultivated by the private farmers, 3) increased risk on agricultural sustainability caused by the increasing rice mono culture, which may destroy the current water and salt management system in the farm, 4) malfunctions of water management organizations which were embodied into the Sovkhoz or Kolkhoz systems. These technical and social problems and their relations were identified and analyzed to give the priorities to the measures for the improved agricultural production in this region.
