Energy conservation in agriculture

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) issued Circular 9 explaining solutions for energy efficiency in cultivation and plant protection, animal husbandry and veterinary medicine, irrigation and forestry.

In the field of cultivation and plant protection, proper planning and boost in breeding research is needed, plants used as material for producing high-productivity and quality biofuel should be developed, new plants resistant to drought, water-logging, salinity, pest are preferentially studied, selected and disseminated.

The fields of animal husbandry and veterinary medicine require proper breeding facility management, thorough use of sunlight and natural ventilation, and limited use of incandescent lamps for lighting and heating. Biogas devices and construction should be developed in households and livestock facilities.
