This study examines the application of methods based on acid hydrolysis of straw, alkaline treatment, hydrobarothermal, enzyme-yeast. One of the directions is the processing of coarse feed, including straw, with electric current. It is known that electric current is used in various technological operations in agriculture. Electro technological processing of straw is a fairly effective method of increasing feed value, all its possibilities have not yet been fully realized. Current parameters are related to its thermal and non-thermal effects at different levels: by changing the first, you can enhance the second, which affects the energy capacity of the process. However, it is impossible to experimentally determine the thermal and non-thermal effects of the current. Therefore, it can be considered advisable to optimize the parameters included in the current (general) system for one effect or another by establishing and using a scheme for replacing the working material. We analyzed this method, which showed the ratio of the current strength of the chemical action to the total current strength tends to decrease, starting with the values of the activation energy of the reaction W= 2.5, the angular velocity of the current ω = 249.2 rad and the process temperature t= 90 ° C..
