Object of researches was grades of Saratov-6 millet, the Peasant, Kinelskoye-92 and Zaryana. On average from 1999 to 2008 the greatest grain yield was received for millet of Zaryanа grade and made 2.60 t with 1 hectare that is 0,23 t/hectare more, than at Saratov-6, taken for control. Results of complex assessment and calculation of competitiveness showed that for the enterprises - producers of millet grain the most competitive are Zaryan's grades and Kinelskoye-92 as they differ in the greatest productivity of grain. The Peasant grade is less competitive as at high quality of grain nevertheless concedes to them on productivity. Calculation relative and integrated the indicators of quality considered by krupozavoda showed that grain of millet of grades the Peasant, Kinelskoye-92 and Zaryana surpasses in quality grade millet grain Saratov-6, taken for control. However the greatest share of influence on competitiveness the grain exit possesses. In spite of the fact that values of an integrated indicator of competitiveness of grain of millet of the studied grades were practically almost at one level, more competitive is the grain of millet of a grade of Zaryanа which is characterized by smaller filminess.milletvarietybarleymilletcompetitivenessпрососорткрупапшеноконкурентоспособность[Волкова, А.
