This work presents the results of research on the impact of organic, minerals, organic and microbiological fertilizers on characteristics of flax fibers in three different varieties of flax. The experiment was performed in the municipality of Bosanska Krupa in 2012. The parcel was set up in randomized block of design with four replications, and the size of the assessment parcel was 10 m2. All three varieties are sown on the basis of 1000 germinable seeds per m2. They represented two foreign sorts: Michael, Belstar and domestic sort X. In the autumn mineral fertilizers were entered in soil in the scale of NPK = 15:15:15, 250 g/20m2, 3 kg/20m2 of manure and 10 l/ha of microbiological fertilizers ''Azoter''. The different combinations of fertilizers were used: organic fertilizer, microbiological fertilizer, organic+microbiological fertilizer and control (without fertilization) - for each tested sort. The research was a multi-factorial (cultivar and method of fertilization). According to the results obtained during the one-year research, Michael and Belstar varieties have achieved the best results with organic+bacteriological fertilizer. Fibers got out of Michael and Belstar variety have better quality, they are longer and harder, which makes them suitable for use in technical textiles where even coarser fibres get more important. X sort fibres are the shortest and the thickest, so they give better results with bacteriological fertilizers. Keywords: flax, sort, morphological characteristics, phenological characteristics, fiber, fertilizer.
