​    ​The peoples who inhabited the middle reaches of the Syr Darya River have, since ancient times, settled along the Syr Darya and Arys rivers and engaged in farming. Archaeological research has proven that during the Middle Ages, the main crops grown in this region were cotton, wheat, millet, melons, and watermelons. By the late 19th and the first half of the 20th century, the cultivation of grain crops — millet, wheat, barley, corn, and sesame — became predominant in the area. 
    The exhibition features agricultural tools such as a wooden plow (zheragash, sokha), a wheeled iron plow, wooden shovels and pitchforks, as well as a complete original set of oil-extracting equipment (zhuaz), presented for public viewing.
