This article describes the state of modern chickpea breeding in the fields that conduct chickpea breeding at the Krasnovodopadskaya agricultural experimental station. Research samples of chickpeas from ICARDA at all breeding stages, samples with productivity higher than standard were selected. Selection and valuable traits were revealed when growing collection samples of chickpeas exposed for research in the following stages. Currently, there is a protein shortage in Kazakhstan to overcome this situation, it is important to identify new varieties of chickpeas that give more yield for the further development of the agricultural industry. Studying the samples of chickpea culture, the article identified samples for various economically valuable traits.

The article presents data on safflower breeding at the Krasnovodopad breeding station. Safflower is adapted to the conditions of a sharply continental climate and is one of the most drought-resistant plants in terms of its demand for moisture. This is due to the high concentration of cell sap and, as a result, economically consumes soil moisture. However, during the seed germination period, a sufficient amount of moisture in the soil is required. One of the main issues of safflower breeding, which largely determines the success of breeding work, is the organization and use of collection material. The studied materials are 280 numbers and varieties of safflower from XI, PSI, KP and Collection. 43 rooms with high productivity and relative resistance to ramularosis were selected.
