Abstract

The objective of this research work was to estimate the population of wild salvia (Hyptis albida) plants and the yield of matter in wild conditions. Two sites (S1 and S2) evaluated of 10,000 m2 were located, presenting a population of 25 to 27 plants. The aerial coverage of the S2 was 1.19 times greater per plant than the S1. However, the stem area of the S2 plants was 1.30 times thicker compared to S1. Average leaf moisture at both sites in spring was 30.74% and 36.61% in summer. In both sites the same species associated with H. albida were found, except Parkinsonia aculeata and Krameria erecta were not observed in S2. Flowering occurred from February to April and from July to September. There were no pests with a significant damage threshold or diseases. According to the weather conditions in May, June and July there were temperatures above 40ºC and below 10ºC in January and February. H. albida is an alternative to start its domestication.
