Abstract
The analytical review of domestic and foreign literary sources on the condition and prospects of grain and seed production in
Ukraine for the period up to 2025 was carried out. The top directions of millet breeding and seed production were determined.
The ecological and biological features of formation of high-quality seed grain of millet (Panicum melliaceum L.) were analyzed.
It was established that the formation and development of seeds of a millet plant is not simultaneous, and accordingly its supply
with nutrients is also different. The level of this supply is connected with the intensity of photosynthesis and the flow of mineral nutrients, which, in turn, is determined by environmental conditions. The interrelation of these conditions with the relevant seed quality indexes is not only of scientific interest, as its morphological and physiological and biochemical properties affect the sowing qualities of the seed grain.
