Analysis of energy flows in agroecosystems

What is the structure of the aggregate energy flow necessary to raise cultivated plants in an agroecosystem? An answer to this question is important for rational agricultural production. Energy flows in agroecosystems are analyzed in the article published below. It is shown by the example of typical agroecosystems cultivated on gray wooded soils that the value of the anthropogenic energy flow is comparable with that of incoming solar radiation.
