The formation of Guba as a fruit-growing region is connected with the name of the national leader Heydar Aliyev.

During the years when the great leader led Azerbaijan, the development of horticulture in our republic, especially in Guba, became an integral part of state policy. It was on his initiative that in 1974, the adoption of the government decision on “Measures for the further development of fruit growing based on intensification and specialization” was the beginning of a new stage in the development of horticulture in Azerbaijan.
After this decision, important steps were taken to regulate and further develop the republic’s economy, and within a few years, 14,000 hectares of new intensive gardens were built in Guba. It should be recalled that until that time there was no such intensive garden area in any region of Azerbaijan.
The national leader invited experts from former Soviet republics to Guba. In 1983-1984, an average of 450-500 quintals of crops were collected from each hectare of gardens. In 1984, Guba gardeners managed to collect more than 100 thousand tons of fruits for the first time in the history of the region.
In the first years following the restoration of independence, when agrarian reforms were started in our country at the initiative of the great leader Heydar Aliyev, there were 37 collective farms, state farms and other state enterprises of this type in Guba. As a result of the reform, 13,424 hectares of orchards belonging to those enterprises were transferred to the private ownership of citizens. Currently, there are about 17 thousand hectares of orchards in Guba. 13 thousand hectares of it are apple orchards.
