Abstract: The present invention starts with a method for obtaining organic extracts of the Artemisia absinthium L. plant, which includes: a methodology phase for producing said plant, an extraction phase during which said essential oil and a non-volatile extract are obtained, and a phase of extracting supercritical extracts with CO2, and refers specifically to the use of the essential oil and/or the supercritical extract extracted as fungicides against phytopathogenic fungi. For said purpose, the Artemisia absinthium L. plant is used, specifically the Candial variety from Teruel and/or Sierra Nevada in Spain. The present invention also relates to the aqueous residue generated during said method, which includes an organic compound which in turn contains (Z)-2,6-dimethylocta-5,7-diene-2,3-diol as an active organic compound against nematodes. The method for obtaining said organic portion and the corresponding active organic component thereof is protected by the present application.
