Abstract
The article shows that natural eco systems are hierarchical and closed. The operation of the subsequent block is based on the previous one, therefore, in such systems, minimal losses of energy and material resources occur. The agro-industrial complex is an open system, such systems can work stably only due to the energy supplied to each unit from the outside. Energy is supplied directly in the form of various energy carriers and indirectly through the expenditure of energy for the creation of material components of the system (machines, buildings, transport devices). The more complex the systems, the more energy they need to function. Energy costs can reach up to 50% of the cost of production. The sources of such energy are analyzed and recommendations are given for saving energy and material resources.
