Problems of Sub-Mountain Area Development Associated with Collapsing Loess Soils (Case of Tajikistan)

Abstract

The major part of seismically active Central Asian countries is presented by large-scale sub-mountain upland areas with complex engineering and geological conditions and surface topography as a rule. Plains and flatlands (valleys) in Tajikistan and Kirgizstan account for 10%, and all the rest areas are presented by mountains. Lack of agricultural area is considered to be a pending problem and calls for urgent solution. One of the efficient ways to solve this problem is to develop sub-mountain (hilly) areas which can make it possible to increase level of agricultural production and expand areas for buildings construction. The article deals with sub-mountain development experience based on the case of Tajikistan which can be valuable for different regions.
