Abstract :This research was conducted to determine suitable sowing dates and the potential productivity of coriander insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Coriandrum sativumL.);, grown in the Mardin, Denizli and Erzurum districts, at Tokat ecological conditions in 1997 and 1998 vegetation periods. Three local populations from Mardin, Denizli and Erzurum were sown on four different dates insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1 November, 1 March, 15 March and 1 April);. The highest seed yield was obtained from the Erzurum population as 908 kg/ha. The greatest essential oil ratio was recorded from the Denizli population with 0.39%. Linalool which is main component of coriander essential oil varied from 50.52- 92.52. Plant height insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(48.6-73.2 cm);, number of branches per plant insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(4.5-6.2);, number of umbels per plant insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(4.7-7.8);, biological yield insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(2.282- 3.473 t/ha); and seed yield insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.678-0.911 t/ha); were decreased by later sowing dates . The effect of sowing dates was insignificant on 1000 seed weight insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(7.46-7.66 g);, essential oil insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.28-0.33 %);, protein ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(14.1-14.8 %); and ash ratio insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(6.28-6.78 %);.
