The coordination of land acquisition with all interested parties is a labor and time consuming process. Even in the absence of disputes and conflicts, in terms of consideration and approval of documents (if national applications processing standards are observed), pre-construction procedures would take about 12 months. Given the high interest of local authorities and farmers in Project implementation, the time requirements may be reduced; however, even under the most optimistic scenario, land acquisition implementation would not be completed sooner than 8 to 10 months.

18Costs and budget

The Project will involve temporary and permanent acquisition of land for construction of IDs and SHDs. Besides, construction of new SHDs will require restriction of rights of agricultural producers because it is not recommended to sow crops on the plots within one year after installation of SHD. It is expected to install IDs on the plots, occupied both by annual and permanent crops, which SHD will be laid only on the plots under annual crops.

Compensation of losses to legitimate land users for loss of agricultural income will be implemented through a bank transfer. Expenses related to recovery of the land plot in areas of excavation will be included in construction expenses.

All calculations are based on information on agricultural crops and market prices that are prevalent in Project raions. Construction of various facilities will last over five years, and the market price for agricultural produce (as well as crop structure) may change during this period. Therefore, compensation expenses will be adjusted according to updated information on land distribution and productivity that has been achieved on affected farms during a period of three years after the start of construction works.

It is expected that on every farm plot, where construction works are to take place, temporary and permanent land acquisition will last no longer than one agricultural season. Thus, compensation for the loss of harvest from annual crops shall be calculated based on gross income for one year. Precise terms of permanent and temporary acquisition of agricultural lands will be known only upon development of project documentation. For the purpose of preliminary calculations, we established average annual income from 1 ha for each crop, weighted on the basis of crop structure.

Construction of IDs will require acquisition of about 70 ha of agricultural land, currently occupied by annual crops, including 42 ha to be permanently acquired. The total amount of compensation for this stage of construction is (in current prices) 9.5 million UZS, or 68 thousand USD (under current exchange rate^¹⁶). If construction is to be extended to the following agricultural season, additional compensations for lost income will be required in amount of 6 million UZS or about 4 thousand USD (see Table 19).
