Energy analysis of resource-conserving efficiency technology for vine protection based on surfactants
The article covers results of three years research to determine the biological efficiency of applying surfactants and pesticides in protecting grapes against pests. It was proved that use of adjuvant reduces the number of chemical treatments from six to four, improve effectiveness of vine protection up to 90% having different degrees of diseases. The paper presents data of energy analysis of vine protection techniques from the view point of energy and resource-conservation, and provides calculation of the ecological effect of this technique in use.
