In the Lower Volga region, there are quite favorable conditions for growing lentils, which makes it possible to expand the area under crops to solve the food program. The study of breeding material and the creation of new varieties of lentil makes it possible to form and supplement the gene pool of high-protein crops. A brief description of the breeding work with lentils in the Russian Research Institute for Sorghum and Maize “Rossorgo” as well as a description of the varieties obtained, included in the State Register of Breeding Achievements, is given. Keywords: LENTIL, VARIETY, YIELD, SEEDS, PROTEIN, SELECTION
