We have find out that in the case of the laser pulse with pico- or subpicosecond duration its energy part, scattered via SBS in the strongly inhomogeneous short plasma, reaches the value of fraction of percent for the intensity of {le}10{sup 17} W/cm{sup 2}, if there is no prepulse, and for the intensity of {le}10{sup 15} W/cm{sup 2}, if such a prepulse is presented. This fact may be of use in the experimental evaluation of the pulse contrast value and influence. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Institute of Physics.}
