Sažetak
Tobacco is a plant that stands out for the speed and amount of absorption of heavy metals from the
soil, especially cadmium. By consuming tobacco, heavy metals accumulate in the human body without
being able to be removed in any way, unlike some other crops (eg tomatoes) in which these metals can
be removed from the body through the digestive tract. Indigenous Herzegovinian tobacco varieties
(Ravnjak, VH and VH32) have long been treated as one of the highest quality, and whose growth and
development requires specific agroecological conditions that are characteristic only of Herzegovina.
This study monitors the translocation of Cd in the soil-tobacco-smoke condensate system in tobacco
grown today in BiH. As this or similar research has never been done on Herzegovinian tobacco before,
the results are comparable with the results obtained with the Virginia and Burley varieties, which were
also the subject of research, and for which there are literature data taken from previous world research.
Soil and tobacco samples were taken from 16 locations from all over BiH, ie. from all localities where
tobacco is grown in BiH today. From the highest quality medium inserts, hand-made cigarettes were
made and later smoked on a smoking machine. Soil, tobacco and smoke condensate samples were
examined for Cd content, and from the statistical analysis of the obtained results, it can be concluded
that there is a significant movement of cadmium from the soil through the plant in the smoke
condensate.
