“…Mineral fertilization resulted in twice the yield compared to organic fertilization (Tables 1 and 1a). The obtained results are in accordance with previous research by authors Lešić et al (2016) and Matotan (2004), who states an average yield of 15 to 30 t/ha, depending on whether it was spring or autumn cultivation. Also, Canali et al (2014) have revealed the average yield from 38.8 to 40.7 t/ha, depending on the year of cultivation, and from 31.2 to 46.6 t/ha, depending on the amount of added nitrogen.…”

“…and Correll J.C, 2008). The root system grows rapidly, and the main root reaches the length of up to 180 cm, on which numerous lateral roots develop, most often in the arable layer, 15-30 cm deep, whose diameter corresponds to the diameter of the rosette (Matotan, 2004). In the vegetative phase, the spinach stem is short, overgrown with a rosette of leaves on longer and shorter petioles.…”

Spinach production is based on a conventional cultivation system. This form of cultivation, due to excessive use of mineral fertilizers, pesticides and other inputs in production, can lead to an unbalanced relation and disruption of natural processes in the soil. Due to this fact, various spinach fertilization systems are being examined in order to ensure health value and environmental protection. A two-factorial (locality and fertilization) one-year study was conducted by random block schedule in four replications. The study examined the influence of different localities (Krizevci in Croatia and Velika Kladusa in Bosnia and Herzegovina) and fertilization systems (mineral, reduced mineral and organic) on yields and nitrate concentrations, as well as the amount of vitamin C in the spinach variety Norvak. Analysis of variance indicates a high and statistically justified (p < 0.05) influence of localities and fertilization on height, spinach yield and nitrate concentration. Due to economic and environmental justification, a reduced mineral fertilization system should be applied in further practice, because the obtained yield and yield components do not differ statistically from those obtained using mineral fertilization, and benefits are multiple (better product quality and less environmental pollution).

“…Newly arrived vegetables have been called "paradiesapfel" in Germany, which means paradise apple. The current scientific name for the Lycopersicon esculentum tomato was suggested by the English botanist Miller in 1768, which would translate into a wolf's edible apple (Matotan, 2008). Tomatoes for eating in Europe are thought to be first used in Italy in the mid-sixteenth century, and then spread to other Mediterranean countries and later to northern Europe.…”

Food is expected to meet basic physiological needs, but also to exert a positive influence on the health and protection of cells from negative environmental factors. Tomatoes are a good source of vitamins and minerals and also have antioxidant properties. The main antioxidants in tomatoes are carotenoids, ascorbic acid and phenolic compounds. Lycopene is responsible for the red color of tomatoes and is considered to be an antioxidant with high biological activity. Studies have shown that lycopene protects the skin from ultraviolet (UV) rays and thus provides some protection against skin cancer.
