Sažetak
The experiment of tobacco production in monoculture and crop rotation was set up on the experimental field of Tobacco Institute Zagreb. Tobacco was planted in monoculture, two-crop (wheat, tobacco), three-crop (maize, wheat, tobacco), four-crop (maize, soybean, wheat, tobacco) and five-crop (maize, soybean, wheat, oil-seed rape, tobacco) rotation. Tobacco growing in monoculture reduced the yield from 2.63 t/ha in the year 1987 to 1.39 t/ha in the fifteenth year (2001). A significantly lower yield was obtained after the fourth year of tobacco monoculture compared to tobacco growing in crop rotation. Tobacco growing in crop rotation had a higher percent of better quality classes and a better chemical composition.
