Vegetable growing is one of the most important and, at the same time, the most complex plant growing branches of agriculture in Ukraine. Firstly, this is due to the value and irreplaceability of vegetable products for human nutrition, which determines the spread of vegetable crops in all regions of the country and the allocation of large areas of agricultural land for their cultivation. On the other hand, a feature of the industry is low transportability and high labor intensity of vegetable production, a large set of cultivated vegetable crops and the mechanization of individual production processes of their cultivation, in particular harvesting, is complicated. Therefore, it is very important to expand better than the cultivation of new vegetable crops, the cultivation areas of which are currently relatively small. One of these crops is Brussels sprouts, which is characterized by excellent nutritional and medicinal properties, but whose cultivation areas are insignificant, due to insufficient study of the characteristics of crop cultivation. Brussels sprouts (Brassica oleracea var. Gemmifera) - vegetable crop. Traditionally regarded as a variety of the species Cabbage (Brassica oleracea) of the genus Cabbage (Brassica) of the Cabbage family (Brassicaceae), some modern sources do not consider Brussels sprouts as an independent species, but consider it a group of varieties of the species Brassica oleracea L., with this approach, the correct name of this group considered Brassica oleracea Gemmifera Group. According to the data obtained, the highest yield in the Vinnytsia region in 2018 was obtained for the cultivation of the Franklin F1 hybrid, where the figure was 7.9 t / ha.  Slightly lower yields were obtained for the Diamond F1 hybrid, where it was 7.4 t / ha.  The lowest yield was obtained for the boxer F1 hybrid - 6.5 t / ha.  In studies conducted in 2019, we can note an increase in the average weight of the heads - by 0.8 g for the hybrid Franklin F1 and respectively for the hybrid Dolores F1 - by 1.0 g, for the hybrids Diamond F1 and Boxer F1 weight gain was insignificant and amounted to  0.2-0.4 g.
