The fig is an herbaceous plant that is very much represented in the area of Mostar and is found in almost every garden. It is especially interesting to be consumed throughout the year in fresh form as well as processed in dried form.
The purpose of this research was to determine the flow of metals from the soil to the fig leaves, and their accumulation in this fruit culture. In the surface horizons of the soil heavy metals of anthropogenic origin can be found.
The results showed that certain forms of fig fruits with or without the crust have different contents of the investigated elements, and the present quantities are below the permissible concentrations. All samples of figs with crust show a greater presence of iron. Smokva je biljna kultura koja je veoma zastupljena na području grada Mostara i nalazi se skoro u svakoj bašti, a posebno je interesantno da se konzumira tokom cijele godine, kako sviježa, tako i prerađena u sušenom obliku.
Ovo istraživanje imalo je za cilj da se utvrde tokovi metala iz zemljišta u plodove smokve, te njihova akumulacija u ovoj voćnoj kulturi. U površinskim horizontima zemljišta mogu se naći teški metali antropogenog porijekla.
Rezultati su pokazali da plodovi smokve, sa i bez kore, imaju različite sadržaje istraživanih elemenata, a prisutne količine su ispod dozvoljenih koncentracija. Svi uzorci smokve sa korom pokazaju veće prisustvo željeza.
