The main directions of scientific research:

The scientific research conducted at the institute is aimed at increasing the level of complex mechanization of agricultural power tools and cotton, grain, animal husbandry, horticulture, vegetable-polishing, potato growing and other fields, and the following tasks are carried out:

• development and implementation of promising mechanized agrotechnologies and resource-saving equipment that ensure full mechanization of all agrotechnical measures for growing agricultural crops, including intensive technologies in cotton-grain growing, vegetable-polishing, horticulture and other crop care;
• performing scientific research aimed at improving the efficiency of using low-productivity lands by creating and introducing new agrotechnologies and technical means for growing grain, oil and nutritious crops in dry lands and desert pastures;
• implementation of innovative works aimed at increasing the efficiency of the processes of production, storage, transportation and processing of agricultural products, including the use of non-traditional and renewable energy sources and information technologies, and comprehensive automation of agro-technological activities;
• development of scientifically based recommendations on the effective use of new modern types of agricultural machinery and equipment produced by foreign and domestic enterprises in the republic's agriculture;
• effective integration of highly qualified personnel training, science, education and production by establishing scientific and technical cooperation and strengthening mutual cooperation with other scientific and higher educational institutions and machine-building enterprises operating in the field of agriculture, as well as with international research institutes and centers organization of activities aimed at providing.

International cooperation

• Confidence is the key to success! With this motto, today, the International Bank of Ukraine cooperates with the World Bank (WB), Asian Development Bank (ADB), GEF, TIKA (Turkey), KOICA (Korea), JICA (Japan), GTTs (Germany) and other international organizations.
• Together with the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank and the German Technical Cooperation Center, "KHSMITI Agromelioration Technological Parks" were established in the Republic of Karakalpakstan and 5 regions in order to increase the volume of introduction of modern energy and resource-efficient technologies and technical means to the republic's agriculture..
• With the support of TIKA (Turkey), a modern greenhouse complex for growing agricultural crops in a protected environment was established.
• In cooperation with KOICA (Korea), work is being carried out to increase the volume of soybean cultivation.
• With the support of JICA (Japan), scientific staff are improving their skills in Japan.
