Model of Plant Productivity and a Computer System for Optimization of Agro-Technology Using the Method of Exergic Analysis

A model of a potentially effective type energy-resource-saving of optimization of agro-technologies, based on the principle subordination of synergetics, was established. There was developed computer system energy-resource-saving optimization of agricultural technologies. The main feature of crop production is provided by the plants which themselves are self-organizing organisms. This allows us to adopt the principle of subordination of synergetics as the basis of the model. The value of free energy at the input into plants, estimated by the process of photosynthesis, is equal to the value of “radiation exergy for plant growth”. Assessment of the use of radiation exergy is carried out based on the energy-converting characteristics of plants, which were obtained in climate chambers under controlled conditions. We used the model based on the principle of subordination of synergetics to develop common quantitative mutually agreed definitions of the main agroecological variables: Agroclimatic and Meliorative potentials of lands, their fertility, and potential (maximum) productivity of plants under different environment conditions.

the principle of subordination of synergetics.The essence of this principle is as follows.When analyzing complex systems with many variables, the one that most strongly affects the operation of the system is selected.This variable is called an order variable.In the further analysis of a complex system, it is considered only as a variable of order.All other variables can be taken into account in the analysis as control parameters.The transformation of energy by living organisms is carried out based of biochemical or photophysical processes.The main process of biological transformations of energy in plants is the photosynthesis of plants.In connection with this, it is advisable to begin the assessment of the bioconversion of energy in plants by determining the potential transformability of the energy of solar radiation in the process of photosynthesis-the exergy of the energy of solar radiation with respect to photosynthesis.As an initial value for the quantitative determination of agroecological variables, the exergy (working capacity in relation to the process of photosynthesis) of solar energy is accepted.The value of exergy limits the maximum value of both the fertility of the land area and the potential productivity (species, variety) of plants under given ecological conditions.
In crop production more than 96% of the energy involved in the process is solar radiation, and only 2% -3%-technogenic energy [1] [2].The primary transformation of the energy of solar radiation is possible only by autotrophic photosynthesizing plants.In the crop model, the radiation exergy is taken as the reference point (the beginning of the calculation)-the portion of energy of solar radiation potentially suitable for photosynthesis and the formation of productivity (e SR ).

The Spectral Efficiency of Photosynthesis-K(λ)ph
The process of photosynthesis is selective to radiation of different wavelengths.
In accordance with the law of quantum equivalence, the effect of converting the radiation energy is proportional to the number of effectively absorbed photons.
The absorption and conversion of radiation energy by plants in the process of photosynthesis is taken into account on the basis of the experimentally established spectral efficiency of photosynthesis, K(λ)ph.The values of K(λ)ph are determined at the irradiance values of the unsaturated photoelectric effect and are expressed in relative units.The relative spectral efficiency of photosynthesis K(λ)ph is the same for all chlorophyll-containing plants.To obtain absolute values of K(λ)ph, the spectral efficiency of photosynthesis is determined for a wavelength λ = 680 nm corresponding to the maximum spectral efficiency of photosynthesis.We have jointly carried out a statistical analysis of 66 experimental spectra of photosynthesis by six authors (Figure 1 Values of the exergy of solar radiation with respect to photosynthesis can be determined by the integration of the spectrum of solar radiation (φ(λ) s ), as well as radiation of any other spectral composition, multiplied by the spectral efficiency . World Journal of Engineering and Technology ( ) ( ) where g is the maximum quantum efficiency of photosynthesis at a peak of action spectrum at 680 nm.λ 1 = 300 nm, λ 2 = 750 nm, the spectrum of solar radiation (φ(λ) s ).
The value of the exergy of solar radiation for a given period of time (Δе SR ) is determined from the data from the meteorological stations or by direct measurements of this value by the exergy measuring device with a spectral sensitivity, similar to the spectrum of photosynthesis К(λ) ph .
The spectral efficiency of photosynthesis (K(λ) ph ), averaged from the data of 66 action spectra.We have jointly carried out a statistical analysis of 66 experimental spectra of photosynthesis by six authors (Figure 1 where I f_REAL is the rate of photosynthesis of plant of this species (variety, hybrid) under current value of the factor f; I f_OPT is the same rate under optimal (for photosynthesis) value of this factor.Measurement of the exergy of optical radiation was carried out with the help of exergy sensors of solar radiation, whose Until now, in the management of the production process of organisms, the genetic information of organisms are not directly taken into account, obviously because of the lack of data on the identification of genetic structures with the ecological and physiological properties of organisms.The possibility of such identification has already appeared and it becomes necessary to directly take into account in the management of the production process genetic information of producers.Obviously, the structures of genetic information contain elements that reflect the properties of the ideal orientation of progressive evolution [9].In selection, seed and especially in biotechnologies, it is clearly necessary to control not only the availability, but also the quantitative evaluation of these elements of the genetic information structures of agricultural organisms.
, curve 2) for different plants, is shown in Figure 1 [1] [2] [3] [4].The solar exergy (e SR ) is the theoretical limit (point of reference) of both the productivity of the crops, and the fertility of the land.All other factors (f) in the model are taken into account as controlled parameters, each with its own optimality coefficient (K f_OPT ).The efficiency of using the solar energy in real conditions by plants of different species (varieties, hybrids) depends both on their intrinsic properties (characteristics) and on the changing environmental factors and soil properties.The values of the coefficients of optimality of ecological and other factors K f taken into account are determined as follows:
