Method for calculating and evaluating the total energy capacity of cotton fiber

This paper discusses the need to save material and fuel and energy resources, requires a new approach to their accounting, qualitative and quantitative assessment, and, in particular, to their use. The correctness of planning and forecasting the levels of mining, production and distribution of resources, and, as a consequence, the clear functioning of industrial and household consumers, depends on this. As the first stage of the calculation, an analysis of energy consumption was performed for the following groups of their consumption: field work; production of mineral fertilizers used in cotton growing; water supply for cotton fields (pumping stations, vertical drains); preparation points and cotton processing enterprises. According to consumption groups, energy capacity is: field work 41%, mineral fertilizers 14% and irrigation 45%. The analysis of the obtained results shows that cotton production occupies a rather large place in the total energy consumption in the republic and its savings at each stage of agricultural work and in industrial processing can give significant results in increasing the efficiency of saving the country's fuel and energy resources.
