A CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK FOR THE PLANNING OF AGRO-INDUSTRIAL TERRITORIES IN URBAN SYSTEMS: THE CASE OF THE KHOREZM REGION

The integration of agro-industrial territories into urban systems represents a critical dimension of contemporary spatial planning, particularly in regions with strong agricultural economies. This study proposes a conceptual framework for the planning of agro-industrial territories within urban systems, using the Khorezm region as a case study. The research aims to identify spatial, functional, and infrastructural principles that ensure the efficient organization of agro-industrial zones while supporting sustainable urban development. A qualitative methodology is employed, combining theoretical analysis, literature review, and regional spatial assessment. The findings highlight the importance of functional zoning, transport connectivity, cluster-based organization, and environmental considerations in structuring agro-industrial territories. The proposed framework contributes to bridging the gap between agricultural production and urban planning, offering practical implications for regional development strategies in post-Soviet contexts.
