Results of studying of the VIR collection including more than 400 samples of a millet of various ecologic-geographical origin are given in article, valuable initial material for practical selection on morphological features and biological properties is emitted. The millet is the most valuable, most ancient national and fodder culture in the south of Russia. The millet received when processing a millet on grain has high flavoring, dietary and nutritious qualities. The high drought resistance and heat resistance is characteristic of this culture. It is capable to resist to fuses and captures that is very important in droughty years and for droughty areas. The millet less than other grain crops suffers from wreckers and diseases. The value of this culture consists also that it is sowed in later terms, it reduces tension of the sowing period.
