Abstract: The experiment was carried out in the horticultural experimental station of the Universidad de Oriente, Jusepín, Monagas state to evaluate the agronomic performance of seven pepper cultivars (Capsicum annuum L.). A randomized complete block design was used with five replications. The cultivars had different blosson onset from two to thrre days. The best cultivars for fruit yield/ha were "Margarita" and "Aruba" (20.2 and 19,7 t/ha, respectively. "Jupiter" (5.36 cm) and "Galaxy" (5.19 cm) presented the widest fruits. The cv. "Margarita" presented the longest fruits (9.81 cm), more number of fruits/kg (24.46) and the lightest fruits (39.02 g). The morenumber of fruits/plant was for cv. "Margarita" (14.1) and "Natalie" (13.6). "Pacífico" (54.31 g); "Jupiter" (50.78 g), "Aruba" (50.35 g) and "Galaxy" (49.98 g) had the heaviest fruits without statistical differences among them.
