Agriculture and environment

Mountains and hilly country account for 93 per cent of Tajikistan’s territory. Altitude varies between 320 m and 7,495 m, which explains the wide diversity in soil and climate conditions and consequently diverse habitats, flora and fauna. More than half of the territory is at an altitude of more than 3,000 m and, due to its extreme climatic conditions, landscapes with rocks, glaciers and highlands are not suitable for agriculture.
