Allay Anarov: A Pioneer in Kyrgyz Agriculture

Early Life and Involvement in Collectivization

Allay Anarov was born in 1907 in the village of Achi, Kyrgyz SSR. As a son of a poor Uzbek peasant family, he initially worked as a farmhand for local landowners. However, with the establishment of Soviet power and the onset of collectivization, he actively participated in the organization of collective farm movements.

Record-Breaking Cotton Yields

In 1927, Anarov became one of the first members of the "Sassyk-Unkur" collective farm. From 1936 to 1951, he led a team at the "Communism" collective farm in the Arawan district, which achieved remarkable cotton production results. In 1948, his team harvested a record-breaking 102.9 centners of raw cotton per hectare. Despite challenging conditions, they maintained high yields in subsequent years, including 88.5 centners in 1949 and 70.5 centners in 1950.

Championing Land Reclamation

Inspired by the Communist Party of Kyrgyzstan's "Land Reclamation Initiative," Anarov was among the first to venture into the Tuy-Moyun Valley. From 1951 to 1962, he served as the head of a cotton-growing brigade at the "Pakhtachi" state farm, where he played a crucial role in reclaiming and cultivating virgin land.

Political Activity and Recognition

Anarov joined the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1939. During the Great Patriotic War, he concurrently served as chairman of the village council. He was elected to the Supreme Soviet of the USSR (1958-1962) and the Supreme Soviet of the Kyrgyz SSR (1958-1962 and 1963-1967). He also held various positions within the Communist Party of Kyrgyzstan and participated in numerous party congresses and conferences.

Honors and Legacy

Anarov's outstanding achievements in agriculture earned him the following recognitions:

Twice Hero of Socialist Labor (1948 and 1951)

Five Orders of Lenin
Order of the Red Star
Merited Agronomy Instructor of Kyrgyzstan (1945)
Later Life and Family

After retiring, Anarov continued to mentor young cotton growers, sharing his valuable experience and skills. He passed away on December 8, 1979, and was buried in the "Intifak" cemetery in the village of Kok-Zhelet.

Anarov's name remains firmly etched in the history of Kyrgyzstan as a pioneer in agriculture and a dedicated champion of collectivization. He left a legacy of innovation, hard work, and unwavering commitment to the development of his country.
