This article presents results of the evaluation of new source material in breeding of monoecious canna-bis. The aim of this study was to evaluate new hybrid-derived initial material and identify forms with high seed productivity and oil content for use in crossing and selection systems in the development of next-generation varieties. As a result of the evaluation of new breeding forms of monoecious cannabis, 10 forms were identi-fied that, regardless of the conditions of the year, consistently formed seed productivity above the average value of the entire sample set. Eleven samples were distinguished by a high relative oil content in seeds, 16 samples had a high absolute oil content in seeds and 6 samples were characterized by high indicators of both relative and absolute oil content in seeds. It is shown that the absolute oil content in seeds has a correlation relationship with the seed weight, characterized from medium to strong, which indicates an indirect relation-ship with productivity and justifies the production of forms with high seed weight and oil content.
Keywords: common hemp, features and properties, seed productivity, oil content, initial material.
