The article describes the results of the creation and study of a new yellow-grain millet variety Sarbin, which passed the State Test in 2017-2019 and has been recommended for cultivation since 2020 in the 8th region of the Russian Federation. Sarbin is characterized by "medium" early maturity, high adaptability, productivity, large grain with a fairly high content of carotenoid pigments and high resistance to melanosis. The listed signs and properties are complemented by resistance to 14 races of the pathogen of smut, controlled by two closely linked resistance genes (Sp 1,3). Sarbin plants have one of the important distinctive features - anthocyanin pigmentation, which is clearly manifested on the stem, leaves and panicle.
