                  Abstract
                  A new criterion for efficient use of energy resources, the essence of which is to minimize the
                  difference between the relative indicators of phytoclimatic life support and phyto-development
                  of plants, is proposed for use in automation systems implemented in protected ground facilities.
                  It minimizes energy costs, while ensuring a specified quality of plants and products, and takes
                  into account the phases of plant development.

on average daily atmospheric temperature and

    Using phytometry criterion, we determine the
level of plant development during its growing
season. Maintaining the maximum level of
development will allow to form the maximum
yield in plants at the initial stage. At the
temperatures of 15 - 24ºC in the greenhouse we
may observe the best formation of the plant yield
(the number of flowers in the inflorescence, the
number of fruits on the branch, the average weight
of the fruit, the weight gain of the fruit).
    To improve plant development, production
conditions must be maintained, during which
temperatures measured at different points in the
greenhouse will be evaluated and compared. The       Figure 2: Dependence of phytotemperature
