Abstract: The article considers the role of variety (hybrid) in the intensification of corn silage production based on scientific research on the test of 27 hybrids of domestic and foreign selection. It is shown that hybrids differ significantly in productivity, crop quality and production intensification. The most adapted to the region’s conditions productive hybrids when growing them by intensive technology provide getting 2,6 times more fodder from the hectare (by the output of absolutely dry mass) and to increase the profitability of agricultural production in 3,1 times compared with less productive and adapted.
