Under the wise leadership of the President of Turkmenistan, Hero Arkadagly Serdar, and the National Leader of the Turkmen People, Hero Arkadag, extensive efforts are being undertaken in the country to provide the younger generation with profound scientific knowledge and high-quality education, as well as to strengthen effective international cooperation in this field.

In view of the great importance of these issues, the III International Online Competition of Scientific Projects “Agroinnovations: the way for sustainable development” is being held on November 11-12, 2026, at the Turkmen Agricultural Institute, bringing together students from higher education institutions of Turkmenistan and foreign countries. A total of approximately 280 promising projects from 94 higher education institutions in Turkmenistan and abroad have been submitted to the Organizing Committee for consideration.

The presentation and expert evaluation of the scientific research projects are scheduled to take place over two days. On November 11 and 12, project authors present their work to a competent jury in real time via digital communication platforms. Students from Turkmenistan, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Romania, Moldova, and Tajikistan are presenting their research projects and engineering developments. Such broad international participation highlights the competition's status as a prestigious platform for exchanging best practices and innovative ideas in the field of agricultural science.

Following the two-day project presentations and the evaluation of the submitted developments, the winners and prize recipients taking first, second, and third places in each category will be awarded official diplomas of the Turkmen Agricultural Institute.
