During the years 1996/1997, at the locality of south Banat (Serbia, Yugoslavia) field experiments with the camomile cultivars Banatska, Bona, Novabona and Lutea were conducted. Along with common agrotechnical measures, and irrigation applied at the rate of 15 l/square m (three times) immediately after sowing, plants have been developed very good, and yielded finally between 657 - 1075 kg/ha of dry camomile flowers, containing 9-11 of moisture. Yields of all four tested cultivars were above the average yields recorded for this and other localities in Yugoslavia in several previous years. Quality of tested cultivars of Yugoslav cultivar Banatska and Slovakian cultivars Bona, Novabona and Lutea were also very good. Content of mineral nutrients and some heavy metals was common. The essential oil content varied in the wide range, depending on cultivar, phase of ripening, as well as from the quality of material used for distillation (raw or dried).
