The Ising chain consisting of the antiferromagneticaly coupled ferromagnetic trimer is considered in the external magnetic field. In the framework of the transfer-matrix formalism the thermodynamics of the system is described. The magnetization per site (m) is obtained as the explicit function of the external magnetic field (H). The corresponding plots of m(H) are drawn. Two qualitatively different regions of the values of coupling constants are established: weak antiferromagnetic coupling (J_A<3J_F) and the strong antiferromagnetic coupling $(J_A\geq3J_F)$. For the latter case the magnetization curve with plateau at $m/m_{sat}=1/3$ is obtained. It is proven that the plateau is caused by the stability of spatially modulated spin structure <3111>. The values of magnetic field determining the width of the plateau are obtained in the limit of zero temperature.
