Abstract:

The organic model of cultivation of the Serbian chamomile (C. recutita (L.) Rausch) cv "Banatska", and essential oil yield was monitored throughout field experiments conducted in Serbia and Greece. Average yield of dry chamomile flowers obtained in Serbia was 778 kg/ha and in Greece was 767 kg/ha. The average content of essential oil in dry chamomile flowers in Serbia was 0,34 % and in Greece was 0,44 %.. The results showed that the content of essential oil appeared to be significantly higher in chamomile cultivated in Greece.

Keywords:
