September 13: Land Development Specialist’s Day (Tajikistan)

Land Development Specialist’s Day is observed in Tajikistan every September 13. This professional holiday has been celebrated since it was officially recognized in 2011. It honors the work of specialists involved in land development, which includes processes such as converting natural lands to farmlands and improving soil quality through various methods like irrigation and drainage. The Agency for Land Reclamation and Irrigation, established in 2013, plays a crucial role in this field, focusing on land reclamation, irrigation, and water hazard risk prevention. On this day, employees of the agency are recognized through congratulatory messages from colleagues and government officials, and celebrations typically feature award ceremonies and festive events.
