摘要
The cost of silage produced from seven potential energy crops in Latvia according to the technologies advised by scientists in the prices of 2009 was calculated in the present paper. It was stated that the average cost of growing, harvesting, and ensilaging crops is approximately LVL 490 ha(-1) in year 1 and ranges within 8% depending on the chosen technology map for growing crops and the biotechnological properties of crops. The cost of producing maize silage was LVL 608 ha(-1) or LVL 12.15 t(-1). However, it is necessary to define more precisely the outcomes of production technology and biogas in order to make general conclusions on the use of energy crops for energy production.
