Cetified vegetable seedlings are young plants with 4-10 permanent leaves produced in a protected area, in accordance with the Law on Seeds and Seedlings. The seedlings grown in containers has a completely regular and equal spacing size, which allows for a steady frowing of plants and uniformity of seedlings. The aim of the paper is to present the certified container production of vegetable seedlings in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). Production of certified vegetable seedlings in BiH started in 2006 with 905,000 seedling units. An increased need for certified seedlings of vegetables in 2010 resulted in the production of 9,552.230 seedlings, at increased compared to 2006 by 10.5 times. Demand for certified seedlings is increasing every year in developed agricultural areas. Because of the narrow crop rotation the vegetable production in protected areas has resulted in the production of grafted seedlings in registered nurseries in Bosnia and Herzegovina. This is a result of the demands of producers in monoculture vegetable production. The production of grafted seedlings started in 2007 with test 40,000 seedling. In 2010 year, this production is achieved 729,500 seedlings, that is 182 times more. Grafted seedlings production is most present in Herzegovina region due to big areas under greenhouses with long production history, where 50% of all certified vegetable seedlings produced in Bosnia and Herzegovina is coming from municipality Chaplin.
