Ключевые слова:

This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the interrelationship
between small business entity activities and poverty levels across the districts of Bukhara region.
The study employed correlation-regression analysis based on statistical data spanning 2019–2024
for 11 districts of the region. The findings reveal that growth in the number of small business
entities, increased employment rates, and rising per capita income exert a statistically significant
impact on the reduction of poverty levels. Furthermore, a comparative assessment of districts was
conducted using regional development coefficients (economic – 7.25, social – 6.45, cultural – 3.57,
infrastructure – 6.72, ecological – 6.75). A multifactor econometric model was constructed, the
principal factors influencing poverty were identified, and forecast values for the period 2025–
2030 were developed
