This paper presents the possibilities of using medicinal plants in the territory of the ”Kuršumlija” Forest Administration. The research was carried out within the “Sagonjevska Crna Čuka” Management Unit, with an area of 2578,67 ha, where 20 sample plots were established (5 in each compartment). These sample plot circles were arranged into a network through compartments 42, 43, 44 and 46 at a distance of 100 m, in the north-south, east-west directions. The radius of each circle is 1.80 m, with an area of 10 m². The environmental conditions were determined in each of the marked sample plots. The medicinal plants were identified and their number was determined, while the cover and association of medicinal plants were also calculated. After that, samples of different medicinal plants were taken for measurement, both fresh and dry, to determine the potential of the biomass of medicinal herbs in the investigated area. The research results showed that the total estimated amount of medicinal herbs biomass in the investigated area was 186.67 kg per hectare. The estimated amount of dried medicinal plants has a significant potential and should be thoroughly examined and used in the future.
