摘要
A village was selected from agro-climatic zone-5 in Punjab (India) to assess energy-resource availability, expenditure and shortcomings of the village ecosystem. Data on energy inputs and outputs were collected over a period of two years. The village had a gross power of 3.9 kW/ha and the over-all output-input energy ratio was 2.5; this ratio was 7.1 for crop-production with a benefit-cost ratio of 2.0. Irrigation consumed 29.4% of the total energy required for crop production. Household activities consumed 67.1% of total energy with cooking accounting for 91.8% of this amount. The village was self-sufficient for cereals and milk products. Energy was imported as diesel, electricity, etc.
