Abstract

The purpose. To improve technique of growing of high-quality grain of millet in conditions of unreliable moistening of Right-bank Forest-steppe. Methods. Laboratoryanalytical, experimentally-field, statistical. Results. Results are given of 4-years probes concerning influence of time of mowing sowings of millet depending on the extent of full maturity of grain in brushes (25 — 30 %, 45 — 50, 65 — 70 and 85 — 90 %), duration of resting rolls (direct thrashing, thrashing in 3, 6 and 9 day after mowing), and weather environment at that period upon features of formation of technological qualities of grain of millet. Conclusions. Premature to recommended (65 — 70% of complete ripeness) term of harvesting, and also detention of that time aggravated technological quality of grain and groats. At the necessity to early use sowings of millet for food and feed purposes it is possible to improve a little such situation by separate thrashing of the yield with the following rest of rolsl during 3 — 6 days. At late harvesting the optimum is direct thrashing.

Key words: millet, technological quality of grain, time of mowing, time of thrashing, duration of rest of roll.
