This study was carried out to investigate the relation between bolting rate and root yield of Angelica gigas for 3 years from 1992 to 1994. Plant height at early growth stage and bolting rate showed linear regression as y=-8.502+0.5449x. Root yield was highest at the field with 11% bolting. Root yield of Angelica gigas in relation to seedling size was highest from medium and small seedlings with 10 to 15% bolting and from large seedlings with below 10% bolting.
