Abstract

Savory (Satureja L.) is widespread in the plains, foothills, low mountains, and other areas of the Nakhchivan MP, as well as in the lower, middle, and partially upper mountain belts. Three species of Savory (Satureja L.) have been identified, the distribution of which in the territory has been established: Satureja macrantha C.A. Mey., Satureja laxiflora C. Koch, and Satureja hortensis L. All these plants are valuable, essential plants. The phytocenological characteristics of Savory plants were studied using geobotanical methods. In the Ordubad Julfa, Babek, Sadarak, and Kengerli districts, geobotanical indicators and natural resources were calculated using experimental methods.
