This article analyzes the historical roots of cotton cultivation in Turkestan, the growing demand of the Russian Empire for cotton raw materials, the introduction of American cotton varieties, and the formation of cotton monoculture on the basis of historical sources and scholarly literature. The study examines the role of cotton in the economic life of ancient and medieval periods, the transformation of Turkestan into a raw-material base for Russian industry in the second half of the nineteenth century, the displacement of local cotton varieties by marketoriented standards, the redistribution of irrigated lands in favor of cotton, and the economic dependency of peasant households. The article argues that the expansion of cotton fields reduced the share of food crops, intensified pressure on land and water resources, and created a historical foundation for later ecological imbalances.
