Of all the Dutch winter vegetables, more Brussels sprouts have been exported in recent years. The export value of this vegetable has increased from EUR32 million in 2008 to EUR66 million in 2017.
These sprouts are gaining popularity, especially in Germany, the United States and Italy. Brussels sprouts are the second most cultivated winter vegetable in the Netherlands. This first is carrots. This became evident in the preliminary results of Statistics Netherlands' (CBS) 2018 Agricultural Census.
