Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: Origanum vulgare (oregano) is a member of the Lamiaceae family and is an indigenous aromatic and medicinal plant of Mediterranean region. At present, it is cultivated the mild, temperate climates of Europe, Asia, North Africa, and America in a large scale due to its economic importance. However, it is commercially grown. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of different level of N, P and K on green herb yield and some herb chemical constituents (N, P, K) in order to recommend a reliable nutrient management for commercial growers. Results showed that, yield generally increase in accordance with the increases in N, P and K fertilizer rates.
