Main chemical and physical properties of soil under cultivation was tested, at four localities in South Banat region (Serbia), during 2002, known for its long tradition of large scale cultivation of medicinal and aromatic plants. Following localities under different large scale of medicinal and aromatic plants cultivation were included in soil investigation: Pancevo, Bavaniste, Gaj, and Dubovac. The obtained results showed that the soils included in investigation were mainly good for medicinal and aromatic plant production in respect to their chemical and physical properties; the content of heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Cr, and Ni) was lower than maximal tolerant quantity in agricultural soils, while the content of polycyclic aromatic carbohydrates (PAH-s) was lower than 1 mg/kg in all analyzed samples, except for the soil samples from locality Pancevo where it was 3-4 mg/kg.
