Abstract. Table carrots are one of the main crops of the borscht set. The production of locally adapted varieties and hybrids will ensure the food security of the region. Breeding of adapted varieties is a long process. The purpose of this article is to review historical information about cultural carrots, botanical and agrobiological features of carrots, and to present the results of studying carrot samples in the northern forest-steppe of the Tyumen region. In these studies, standard methods for the study of table carrots were used. The analysis of the growing conditions of table carrots and the potential for obtaining the highest yields in the conditions of the Northern Urals is made. Historical information and biological features are considered. A preliminary study of the source material for the creation of varieties in local conditions adapted to this natural and climatic zone has been carried out. From 2016 to 2022, 38 varieties and hybrids of table carrots were studied, of which 29 were domestic and 9 were foreign. As a result, it was revealed that the Zafiro F1 hybrid (Variety types Berlikum/Nantskaya) had the highest total and marketable yield – 57.1 t/ha. In terms of marketability of root crops, the Canada F1 hybrid with a marketability of 90% stood out. In this article, the authors managed to summarize an overview of the prospects for growing carrots in the dining room in the region and the Northern Urals as a whole. The scientific novelty of the research carried out is that for the first time in these natural and climatic conditions, varieties and hybrids of table carrots were identified, which during 2016-2022. They combined high yields, ecological plasticity and high resistance to adverse environmental factors in order to carry out subsequent crosses and obtain valuable breeding material and create new varieties and hybrids for the conditions of the Northern Trans-Urals.
