STARTING MATERIAL TO CREATE FODDER MILLET VARIETIES

Abstract

Cultivation of high-quality forage crops, among which millet takes a lead, is a pre-requisite for growth in green forage production for the livestock sector. However, despite the considerable economic importance as a forage crop, millet is little spread in Ukraine. First of all, this is associated with a limited assortment of forage varieties. The article presents the results of research in 2011-2013 and 2016 on 26 forage millet accessions from a national collection of the Center of Plant Genetic Resources of Ukraine studied in the Eastern Forest-Steppe of Ukraine. The accessions are from 10 countries, which means a possibility to select valuable sources, regardless of their eco-geographical origin. The highest yields of green mass were obtained from Chinese accessions, which exceeded reference variety Kharkivske Kormove by 5-6 t/ha. The results showed relationships between the HTC during during the “emergence – paniculation” period and green mass yield as well as variations in the protein, ash and cellulose contents in green mass of the collection millet accessions. We singled out sources of high and stable green mass yield as well as of increased protein and ash contents in millet green mass.
