In the work we presented, based on field production experiments conducted in the Belgorod region, an economic assessment of various winter wheat protection systems is given. In particular, crop protection systems with treatment only with chemical preparations (chemical) and with the integrated use of biological and chemical preparations (integrated) were studied. The most important economic indicators have been calculated, allowing to determine the most profitable, from the point of view of financial costs, systems. As a result, we found that the highest profit was obtained with using the integrated winter wheat protection system - 4446.7 rubles / ha, the profitability of these treatments was 95%. It was also found that the introduction of an integrated system is the most preferable from the point of view of protecting the environment from pollution. When applied on crops, the pesticide load on the soil is reduced, since the amount of applied chemicals is more than halved in comparison with the chemical protection system.
