Abstract
Different quality adaptive reactions of the "Cave-in-rock" and "Morozko" varieties were found in terms of productivity parameters depending on the method of sowing seeds, the presence of a marker crop and the conditions of vegetation periods. The highest yield of switchgrass for both varieties was for the second and third terms of sowing (first and second decades of May). The method of sowing switchgrass seeds with a row spacing of 45 cm with white mustard as marker crop must be used for effective weed control. Ukrainian variety "Morozko" is a more adapted variety for the conditions of the forest-Steppe of Ukraine.
