This study examines the impact of non-farm activities related to household plot farming
among the rural population. The study uses data from a social survey conducted among 1,843 household
plot farms in rural areas of the Samarkand region. The Tobit model was applied to economically assess the
impact of non-farm activities related to household plot farming on income generated from such activities.
The results indicate that the development and/or organization of non-farm activities related to household plot
farming in rural areas is statistically significant at the 1 percent level (***p < 0.01). Based on the findings,
scientifically grounded recommendations were developed to increase income derived from household plot
farming activities.
