An endeavor is made to analyze the development of cabbage seed production in Dagestan whose soil and climatic conditions are conducive to the use of a seed-growing practice without replanting. The vegetable seed production system in southern Dagestan is undergoing modernization within the framework of a subprogram of the Federal Scientific and Technical Program for the Development of Agriculture. Dagestan Experiment Station of VIR has started implementing one of the tasks under an integrated research and development project entitled “Obtaining competitive mid-late and late white cabbage hybrids with the purpose of import substitution”. This task includes identification of seed production areas with sites best suited for the seed production of white cabbage with various ripening schedules. Dagestan Experiment Station of VIR has many years of experience in growing vegetable seeds and is located in Derbent District, an area with natural and climatic environments most favorable for cabbage seed production.
