Abstract: This research was carried out to determine quality properties of some plants that contain allelochemicals for the future products (e.g. drugs). The study was carried out to analyze the nutritional composition of the leaves Setaria viridis, Datura stramonium, Sorghum halepense and Aristolochia clematitis L. collected from different Banat zones, using standard method of plants analysis. For different plant species the crude fat content ranged between 0.500±0.151–2.617±0.213% and crude fibre 10.120±0.437–11.627±0.430%. The crude protein content was determined high in the leaves of Setaria viridis (21.18±1.707%), Datura stramonium (22.15±0.497%), Sorghum halepense (22.37±0.830%) and Aristolochia clematitis L. (22.49±0.529%) while the carbohydrate content was highest in the leaves of Datura stramonium (218.83±1.010%) and leaves of Sorghum halepense (174.33±0.629%). The nutritive value ranged from 60.333±0.289 (Sorghum halepense)– 47.667±0.289 (Datura stramonium) cal kg–1 in the various plants that contain allelopathic compounds.
