abstract = "In addition to the well-known use of medicinal plants in traditional
(popular) and official (modern) medicine, medicinal plants are
increasingly used in the very production of plants. More specifically, at
the beginning of the twentieth century, with the introduction of hitherto
unknown production methods (biodynamic and organic), the activities
concerning the use of this type of plants were intensified in various types
of plant production (arable, vegetable, fruit and viticultural and other), as
well as in the production of various plant nutrition and plant protection
products, of compost and similar products. In this paper discusses the use
of a certain portion of medicinal plant species, the ones which are
predominantly used in biodynamic and organic production.
The first part of the paper presents some of the most used medicinal
plant species used for this purpose: stinging nettle (Urtica dioica L.),
comfrey (Symphytum officinale Wallwort), dandelion (Taraxacum
officinalis Weber), garlic (Allium sativum L.), horsetail (Equisetum
arvense L.), chamomile (Chamomilla recutita (L.) Rausch.), tansy
(Tanacetum vulgare L.), yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.), pot marigold
(Calendula officinalis L.), valerian (Valeriana officinalis L.), marigolds
(Tagetes sp.) and burdock (Arctium lappa L.). As different organs are
used from these species, the time of the harvesting (picking) of these
species is of great importance. The most suitable picking moment is from
the beginning until the full blossom phase, because during this period,
the listed species are the richest in their typical active substances, microand
macro elements.
The second part briefly explains how and by what means the listed
species are used in biodynamic and organic production, how and in which
manner to prepare by some of the recipes for the making of individual
preparations, as well as what their purpose is in plant nutrition, plant
protection and/or the preparation of compost.",
