The digital transformation of agriculture is reshaping production systems worldwide, improving resource efficiency and sustainability. In Uzbekistan, where agriculture remains a cornerstone of the economy, digital technologies represent a critical opportunity to optimize productivity and respond to climate-related challenges. This paper evaluates the economic efficiency of adopting digital technologies—such as smart irrigation, drones, sensors, and farm management software—in Uzbekistan’s agricultural sector. Drawing upon case studies from the Fergana Valley, Samarkand, and Bukhara regions, the study highlights how data-driven decision-making enhances water use efficiency, reduces input costs, and improves yields. The results indicate that digital innovations can reduce production costs by 20–30%, increase yields by up to 35%, and achieve investment payback within 4–6 years. However, challenges remain, including infrastructure limitations, digital illiteracy, and financing barriers. This study concludes that targeted policies, education, and international cooperation are essential for scaling digital agriculture and ensuring the long-term sustainability of Uzbekistan’s agroeconomy.
