The invasion of medicinal and cosmetic natural products brings one other opportunity for cultivators, chamomile being one of the most used medicinal plants in these domains. The paper proposes to come in farmers help by the study of some nationals and foreign cultivars of chamomile that fit in Banat area. Research pointed out the fact that both cultivars have high yield capacity, still the Agrosel line had the highest production (861 kg/ha dry inflorescences) followed by Mărgăritar cultivar. On oil content, Mărgăritar cultivar was pointed out, followed closely by a chamomile population from Serbia. As conclusion of the obtained results, we could recommend the cultivation of Romanian cultivars because of the obtained results and for promoting the Romanian agriculture.
