Abstract: The article discusses the bioenergetic model assessment on economic impact on sunflower production on blackbirds (Icteridae) population consisting of three species including red-winged blackbirds (Agelaius phoeniceus), common grackles (Quiscalus quiscula), and yellow-headed blackbird (Xanthocephalus xanthocephalus). The species damage affects sunflower harvest in the northern Great Plains of North America based on the analysis did.
