Abstract

A few years ago began the re-cultivation of flax in the area of the northwestern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina with the ultimate aim of producing seeds and fibers. Flax seed contains about 57 % alpha linolenic acid known by multiple medical effects as the guardian of cardiovascular health, and which the current way of nutrition we take into the organism in about ten times smaller quantity than those recommended by the World Health Organization. In addition to the seed of the flax are obtained with high quality fibers that are environmentally acceptable and for which there is a great need in the area of the European Union. In order to achieve higher yields have been conducted research on the effects of fertilization on seed yield. For this purpose, the experiment was conducted under field conditions at two locations (Cojluk and Ostruznica) in a split-plot design. In the research were used three varieties (Mikael, Belstar and variety X) with five fertilization treatments: T1 - control, T2 - mineral fertilizers T3 - organic fertilization, T4 - bacterial fertilizer (Azoter) and T5 - bacterial+organic fertilizer. Based on the obtained results, the two-year investigation of morphological and phenological traits was found that there were differences between the studied varieties and fertilizer on the basis of treatment. Statistical significance of highest yield at both locations was obtained by variety Belstar with fertilization treatment T5 (1600 kg/ha Ostruznica and 1900 kg/ha Cojluk). With the aid of the Kruskal-Wallis test revealed significant differences in fertilization treatments, which had an impact on all the characteristics of the flax plant, the statistical differences between the varieties studied traits less significant. After the research, as the best variety for cultivation, and on the basis of the yield level, recommended varieties Belstar with the aforementioned method of fertilization (T5). Keywords: flax, omega 3 fatty acids, fertilization, yield.
