Abstract

Salvia officinalis L. is cultivated for it's leaves which have as active element the volatile oil. This together with the other components have coleretic, carminativ, antiseptic, hipoglycemic efects and antisudorific action. Allium cepa L. contains sugars, vitamines, antibiotic substances, volatile oil, flavonoides, glucochimines etc. Those active elements have diuretic and antiseptic efects. At SCDA Secuieni during 2006-2008 diferent doses of ecologic fertilizer were examined (8 l/ha, 10 l/ha, 13 l/ha). The used fertilizer was Kipos, which contains 18,72% organic nitrogen, 0.64%, organic phosphorus and 0.52% organic potassium. For both species highest productio were obtained with the 10 l/ha dose. Thus, for Salvia officinalis L. the dried herba production, in the 10 l/ha variant, was 2105 kg/ha in tre first year, 2346 kg/ha in the second year and 3580 kg/ha in the third yer of vegetation. For Allium cepa L. the bulbs production (10 l/ha eco fert variant) was 22760 kg/ha in 2006,23330 kg/ha in 2007 and 24815kg/ha in 2008.
