Abstract: This article analyzes the causes of poverty in our country and the work being done to reduce it. The causes of poverty are different in different periods and regions, and many studies and measures have been taken on short and long-term measures to eliminate them. Today, we can see that the main focus is on reducing unemployment and providing the population with a guaranteed income. The population income indicator, on the one hand, is an indicator of determining poverty, and on the other hand, it also reflects the results of fighting against poverty. In this sense, if the population’s income indicator is considered as the source of purchasing all kinds of goods, work and services defined as the basis of the ability to pay, that is, the poverty line, then its feature as an indicator of poverty is revealed.
