Experience is displayed during the period 2010 – 2012 The aim of the field experiment is to study the phenology and productivity of true millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) as non-traditional forage crop. It was found that the growing period of true millet is extremely short – from 99 to 100 days. The leaves and panicle represent 48.9% of the total share of plants. Dry matter yield average for the period is 541.8 kg/da. The resulting crude protein feed is equal to 57.1 kg/da. The grain yield is equal to 289.9 kg/da, and the crude protein reaches 42.9 kg/da. While growing the true millet at the fodder production was obtained with 33.1% higher yield of crude protein in comparison to that harvesting of grain.
