The article summarizes the characteristics of the use of labor resources in agriculture by the head of the farm, determining the level of use of resources, efficient use of labor resources, shortening the seasonal working period of labor resources in agriculture, creating an employment environment, prospects for the use of labor resources in agriculture, organization of small enterprises for the industrial surplus production of agricultural products, organization of storage rooms for agricultural products, indicators reflecting the general state of labor productivity are presented. , as well as conclusions on the effective use of labor productivity and comparison of the economic potential of farmers and peasants, conclusions on the main factor of the production process, reproduction of the labor force regardless of the ownership of the economy in agricultural production.

In the conditions of the Republic of Uzbekistan, much attention is paid to the efficient use of irrigated land, the introduction of modern resource-saving technologies, and universal equipment that can ensure competitiveness, increase productivity and obtain high crop yields. A solution to the problem is proposed by replacing single-operation, simple equipment with more advanced ones - multifunctional, universal, or combined units. Therefore, reducing the number of passes by combining two or more technological operations using universal or combined units of pre-sowing tillage and sowing in cotton rows between rows can provide an increase in productivity, lower operational and energy costs. Traditional conventional single operational methods of tillage and sowing are becoming more and more expensive in terms of time, energy costs, metal consumption, the number of machines needed, and also lead to disruption of the soil structure and compaction due to the greater number of passes. In the conditions of irrigated agriculture in Uzbekistan, the combination of primary processing with sowing is considered unacceptable except for pre-sowing treatment and the sowing of repeated crops. With a high probability, a promising and necessary way is a combination of pre-sowing treatment and sowing.

A scheme of the technological process of work and the design of the opener of the sowing machine for sowing winter wheat in the rows of cotton are proposed. Increases the efficiency of cultivation technology compared to the traditional maximum use of the furrow profile. Comparative analyzes of the methods of cultivating winter grain cultivations are made. Narrow-row sowing of winter wheat in the rows between growing cotton with a sowing rate of 180-200 kg/ha is recommended.
