The Software Digital Complex “Sinergotron” for Research and Development: Breakthrough Technologies in the Cultivation of Agricultural Crops

The growing population of the Earth with the limited possibility of further expansion of sown areas makes it necessary to develop breakthrough agricultural production technologies. These technologies can be based on obtaining new scientific knowledge in the field of plant biology, in particular, the mechanisms of the production process in plants. Therefore, the aim of this work was to develop a modern digital software package of the “sinergotron” class for scientific research and cultivation of plants in artificial conditions. The transition from automation to programmatic control of environmental parameters of closed systems of the “sinergotron” type allows one to grow plants with qualitatively new properties and to obtain new information for both the researcher and the technologist in modern crop production. A prototype of the complex model ISR-1.1 has passed both technical and biological tests with positive results. Based on the prototype and its prototypes, the possibility of conducting research on developing the technology for growing plants on the example of salad crops is shown.
