Perspectives of barley breeding for the conditions of the Volgo-Vyatka region (analytical review)

The article is devoted to the analysis of structure sown areas and characteristics barley varieties zoned in Kirov region for 2020. In 2019 cultivated production more than 20 years had largest specific weight – 50.1 % acreage occupied with barley. Those 10 36.1 %; from 5 13.8 %. Certified sowings varied year percentage area. There a gradual decrease unsorted 3.0 thousand hectares 2017 up 1.18 2019. bred Federal Agricultural Research Center North East named N. V. Rudnitsky (FARC North-East) were 21.5 southern zone 57.8 northern region. For whole greatest distribution was recorded among Belarussian cultivars Zazersky 85 (39.3 barley), FARC North-East: Ecolog (10.8 %), Rodnik Prikamiya (7.1 %) Novichok (7.0 %). districts ratio changed: 27.2 %, 18.9 9.0 7.7 High productivity (4.22-4.79 t/ha average), resistance lodging diseases characterize cultivars. main disadvantage assortment offered zoning lack stable yield differences duration growing season varieties. All belong group mid-season, except mid-late cultivar 85. short sources high-quality raw materials forage production; only 30.7 all are presented by high grain quality (Ecolog, Belgorodsky 100, Pamyati Rodinoy). Currently, trend developing high-yield early, resistant become key factor breeding work.
