31 km of Irrigation Infrastructure
The “Kozho-Kaiyr” canal is located in Kadamzhai district, Batken region, roughly 95 km from Osh, running at elevations of 900–1,050 meters above sea level. Its head structure is located in the village of Valakish.
The canal has a trapezoidal cross-section and supplies water to 6,300 hectares of irrigated farmland, with a design peak capacity of 9.0 m³/s.
Reliable Water Delivery
The project restored sections of concrete lining and modernized the canal’s hydraulic structures, reducing water losses, improving system reliability, and strengthening water resource management.
Canal Efficiency
0.65 → 0.83
+27.7%
expected improvement in the canal’s efficiency coefficient following reconstruction.
