At the Institute of Agriculture of the Carpathian Region of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, varieties of winter barley Shyrokolystyi, Kormovyi, Dnister and Zbruch were created by the method of mutation selection, which are included in the State Register of plant varieties suitable for distribution in Ukraine. The Lubomyr variety is in the Register of Patents. These varieties are characterized by high yields of green mass and indicators of fodder qualities and are carriers of traits absent in the world selection of this crop, which makes it possible to conduct selection work in a new direction of using winter barley, namely for green fodder. Our research revealed the adaptability of certain varieties of winter barley to the weather conditions of the western region, which was manifested in the indicators of yield and grain quality.      Key words: winter barley, sample, variety, productivity, variety testing.
