Electrotechnical processes of agricultural engineering permit effective use of electricity, first as a direct source of power (electroheating of dwellings and living organisms, electric treatment of soil, their disinsectization, electric pasteurization of feeds, electric hardening, electric fission, electric welding, drying, production of heated air, hot water, steam, etc.). Secondly as a specific source of electrophysical effect on living beings and materials (lighting, radiation processing, agricultural products cleaning and grading, electrostimulation of plant and animal growth, electrotreatment of animals and pest control, plasmolysis of plant materials, etc.)
