Uzbek gardeners
Uzbekistan's President Shavkat Mirziyoyev wants people to go back to growing their own. He says staples like milk and potatoes should be produced not purchased - does he have a point? We asked 蜜芽传媒 Uzbek's Pahlavon Sodiq, who grew up with chickens and grew vegetables, that very same question.
