Two species of edible honeysuckle were studied in the trial established in the autumn 1994. The spacing used was 2.0 × 1.5 m and the experiment included irrigated as well as non-irrigated variants. The aim of this study was to provide a summary of nutritional values of Lonicera kamtschatica and Lonicera edulis berries under the Nitra conditions during the period [2001][2002][2003]. The berries were examined for the content of dry mater, sugar, organic acids, ascorbic acid, mineral substances -K, Ca, P, Mg, Na and anthocyanins from pomace and juice. The results of our experiments refer to the exceptionally high content of ascorbic acid ranging from 28.56 up to 86.96 mg/100 g, potassium 10,175 to 14,764 mg/kg and anthocyanins from pomace 6.245-17.36 g/kg. The values of ascorbic acid varied and they were statistically significantly depending on the year; similarly, only year can be taken into account as a statistically significant factor for forming content of sugar, magnesium and sodium. The content of dry mater, organic acids, potassium, calcium and anthocyanins in juice was influenced not only by year but also by species. The interaction species -year as a source of statistically significant differences is evident in the case of phosphorus and organic acids. A significant influence of irrigation on all evaluated nutrients was not confirmed. covered with black polyethylene mulch. In order to examine the influence of drip -irrigation on the nutritional value of fruit the experiment comprised 2 variants, irrigated and non-irrigated, placed in 2 blocks.The soil and climatic conditions of the site were as follows: open level, 130 m above sea level, corn processing area, clay-loam -drift, pH 6.4, mould content 3.5%, precrop black fallow, average rainfall 564 mm per year, average temperature during vegetation period 16.3°C. The actual values of average rainfall and temperature in March-June 2001-2003 are given in Tables 1 and 2. 12 shrubs were planted for each variant. The research of the chemical composition of Lonicera berries was carried out at the Plant Research Institute in Malanta in [2001][2002][2003]. The samples of edible honeysuckle were analyzed for the content of dry mater, sugar, organic acids, ascorbic acid and mineral matters -potassium (K), calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg) and for the content of anthocyanins from pomace and juice.In order to determine the content of dry matter, berries were dehumidified until constant weight was reached; organic acids were determined by the NaOH titration according to Príbela (1967) and were calculated on citric acid; the percentage of sugar content was determined by the method of SOMOGYI; the amount of ascorbic acid was obtained by polarography; mineral matters were identified in ash and the content of mineral substances was determined by atomic spectroscopy (AAS) after drying and burning berries in the drying kiln; the content of anthocyanins was determined by the method of Füleki and Francis (1968). Statistical analyses were conduct...
