INTRODUCTION

Smooth, Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is a polymorphic plant, 

the appearance of which is slightly different depending 

on the environmental conditions. About 30 forms of 

the smooth Glycyrrhiza glabra L. species growing in the 

basins of Central Asia and Kazakhstan, Caucasus, Volga 

and Don, Dnieper and Dniester rivers were studied in 

natural and cultural (in Tashkent and Mirzachul 

conditions) and it was found that their morphological 

characteristics have characteristics of preservation in 

different ecological conditions. (Tashmukhamedov, 

1974; Ashurmetov, 1987). 

Licorice is a typical forest plant, naturally, it grows 

mainly in waterside areas with sufficient moisture. A. 

Bakhiev (1976) adapted to grow as the main edifier in 

moist areas where Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is prone to 

forest plants (willow, sedge, reed, sedge, etc.). It is also

found as an edifier in grassy forests where there are no 

trees or shrubs. 

METHODS 

The research used a systematic-structural approach 

based on the principles of objectivity, universality, 

concreteness, logical and historical practical 

systematic analysis. This makes it possible to see the 

environmental problems presented in the article as a 

whole system. 

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is a salt-tolerant plant, but it is 

rarely found in naturally high salinity areas, because 

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. naturally reproduces mainly by 

generative means, while in highly saline soils, sprouted 

grasses die, due to manure or cattle manure, and water 

runoff. Seedlings can survive in clean or low salinity 

soils. However, we can find sweet saffron growing well 

in areas with strong saline soil. This is due to the fact 

that if there are few Glycyrrhiza glabra L. plants, the 

salinity level of this soil may increase and reach a high 

level of salinity, but Glycyrrhiza glabra L. that has 

passed one vegetation period can grow well in saline 

soil. 

It can be propagated vegetatively in areas with strong 

salinity. When planted, the roots of "liquorice" pierce 

the gypsum layer in the soil, enriching the soil with 

nitrogen, humus and other useful elements. By 

increasing the grain size of the soil, it reduces the level 

of salinity (dry residue in 4-5 years) by 2.0-2.5 times. 

Due to the fact that the roots of smooth Glycyrrhiza 

glabra L. penetrate deep into the soil layer and reach 

underground water, planting this plant is an 

incomparable plant in stopping the movement of soil, 

sand and salt, in creating new pastures for cattle in 

places where forage plants have disappeared due to 

the rise of flood waters and soil salinity. is considered 

According to N. Khaidarov, the rate of evaporation in 

the period from April 1 to the end of September is 2319 

t/ha in the area of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. in the 

moderately saline area, and 4334 t/ha in the open area, 

as well as 3364 t/ha in the area of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. 

in the area of strong salinity. , in the open area was 

5085 t/ha. During four months (June, July, August, 

September), smooth licorice plants grown in medium 

salinity areas lost 10,808 t/ha, and smooth licorice 

plants grown in high salinity areas lost 6,365 t/ha. This, 

in turn, is one of the main factors that reduce salinity 

(Khaydarov, 1990). 

In general, it is very beneficial to plant Glycyrrhiza 

glabra L. not only as a raw material, but also in 

agricultural farming, as a plant that assimilates the land 

using the botanical method, and restores the 

ecological balance. The scientists of the Republic of 

Uzbekistan, mainly the scientists of the Institute of 

Botany, developed the technology and agrotechnics of 

growing this plant together with ameliorative fodder 

plants, and created the method of botanically 

developing saline lands. Along with its ability to grow 

well on saline, gypsum soils, it has been proved that it 

has a strong ability to reduce the amount of salt in the 

soil and increase its productivity, and it can be grown 

with natural moisture in the lands near seepage water 

(Zokirov et al., 1970; Pauzner, Muinova, 1970, 1973; 

Nigmatov, 1972, 1977; Tekaev, 1977; Badalov, 1979; 

Komilov et al., 1991; Kuziev, Streltsovav, 2008). 

Like other legumes, the roots of this plant contain 

azotobacterial nodules, which enrich the soil with 

nitrogen. In addition, 9-12t/ha of plant residues remain 

on the ground and rot, enriching the soil with organic 

humus. As a result, the structure and physical condition 

of the soil improves and its graininess increases.

There is no end to the variety of uses of the Glycyrrhiza 

glabra L. plant in different fields. It is used in many 

branches of agriculture. Livestock: The above-ground 

part of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is a good fodder for 

livestock and can also be used as silage. In this case, 

knowing the standard of feeding cattle will have a 

good effect. Glycyrrhiza glabra L. contains 1.5-2 times 

more protein, protein, fat and sugar than alfalfa, wild 

alfalfa and spartate. In naturally growing sweet potato, 

there are 11-18% protein, 10-15% protein nitrogen, 3-9% 

fat, 6000-20000 ME/kg of phytoestragens - equal to 

0.40-0.45 nutritional units. The quality of these 

indicators is even better in the above-ground parts of 

the planted sweet potato, having 8.2-24.0% protein, 

10.5-19.7% protein, 3.2-9.1% fat and other substances. 

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. contains 11 different useful 

substances, including sorrel (shavelovaya), grape 

(vinnaya), lemon, apple, amber and fumaric acids. Free 

nutrient acid in it is 4.6-6.0%, and the sum of phenolic 

compounds is 1.5-2.8%. Its nutritional properties are 

highly valued for livestock, it has a biologically active 

substance that regulates the metabolism and plays a 

major role as a phytoestrogen. 

The use of "liquorice" in medicine began very long ago, 

2800 years before our era. During the time of 

Hippocrates and Theophrastus, who lived in the 4th 

century BC, it was called "the Scythian vein from the 

coast of the Sea of Azov". The great and famous 

scientist, physician Abu Ali Ibn Sina used sweet pepper 

in the treatment of many ailments and wrote it down 

in his works. In general, Glycyrrhiza glabra L. has been 

widely used and is still being used up to our time. The 

root contains biologically active substances: 

hydrocortisone, antiseptic, antidontic, used against 

colds, and also has an effect on the treatment of 

glandular swellings in the body. At the same time, it has 

been used since ancient times in folk medicine for 

cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, respiratory 

tract colds, anemia, kidney, liver, fever, gums, lungs, 

voice disorders, stomach inflammation, chronic 

constipation, kidney and bladder ulcers and various 

other ailments. widely used in treatment (Holmatov, 

Kasimov 1994; Ibn Sino, 1993; Tolstikov and others 

2007 and others). 

In modern medicine, the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. 

are used in the preparation of glyciram, liquiriton, 

likurazid, flakorbon and more than 100 other 

preparations. Preparations, dry and liquid extracts and 

juice made from Glycyrrhiza glabra L. raw materials are 

used for colds, lung and respiratory tract diseases, 

expectorant, diuretic, metabolism regulating, asthma, 

eczema, allergic, food poisoning, stomach and 

duodenal ulcer and inflammation. It is used against 

diseases and infections. It is used when the skin is 

burned, injured and inflamed. The flour, thick and liquid 

extracts and juice prepared from the roots are used in 

pharmaceuticals for the preparation of compound 

medicine. Also, in folk medicine, the decoction is used 

for chest pain, shortness of breath, dry throat, 

gastrointestinal tract, cough, expectorant, diuretic, 

and mild expectorant for chronic constipation (Nabiev 

et al., 1989; Taganov, Karimov, 1991; Irismetov, 1991). 

Glycyrrhizic acid in the root of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is 

the main medicinal substance. This substance has a 

very sweet taste and is 50 times stronger than sugar in 

terms of its sweet taste. Glycyrrhiza glabra L. roots and 

rhizomes contain many chemical compounds, 

including mono- and disaccharides, starch, pectin, 

fiber, protein and nitrogenous compounds, organic 

acids, flavonoids, coumarins, gums, oil, essential oil, 

steroids, ascorbic acids, macroelements - K , Sa, Mg, Fe, 

trace elements — Mn, Cr, Al, Va, N, Sr, Pb and other 

elements. Liquiritin, liquiritoside, licuroside, glabroside 

and other 30 different compounds were isolated from 

flavonoids obtained from underground parts

(Kholmatov, Kasimov, 1994).  The surface of 

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. contains protein, protein, 

saponins (steroid, triterpene), flavonoids, coumarins, 

ascorbic acid, essential oil, flavoring agents, sugars, 

pigments, fiber, organic acids, carotene, chlorophyll, 

etc. Quertetin and its glycosides, kaempferol, 

astrogollin, glyphoside, saponaritin, vitexin, glabranin, 

etc. were isolated from the flavonoids obtained from 

the upper part of the earth (Streltsova, Muinova, 1991). 

CONCLUSION 

It was found that the drug prepared from glycyrrhizinic 

acid obtained from the roots of Glycyrrhiza glabra L. is 

superior to the drug "Azidothymidine" when used 

against HIV infection - AIDS, and the drug made from 

flavonoid substances is 25 times stronger than 

"Azidothymidine" (Tolstikov et al., 1991). . An anti-cold 

medicine was produced from saponin and flavonoids 

obtained from the surface of the earth, and its use was 

found to be effective (Shitov, 1980). According to the 

results of the analysis carried out jointly by the 

countries of China, Korea and Japan, on an electronic 

computer, among the 233 medicinal plants included in 

158 complex recipes, the product obtained from 

Glycyrrhiza glabra L. took the first place in terms of its 

medicinal benefits and the few negative effects 

(Grinevich, Brachman , 1977).
