description The leaves of <i>Chrysanthemum indicum</i> L. are known to have various bioactive compounds; however, industrial use is extremely limited. To overcome this situation by producing high-quality leaves with high bioactive content, this study examined the environmental factors affecting the phytochemical content and antioxidant activity using <i>C. indicum</i> leaves collected from 22 sites in Kochi Prefecture, Japan. Total phenolic and flavonoid content in the dry leaves ranged between 15.0 and 64.1 (mg gallic acid g<sup>−1</sup>) and 2.3 and 11.4 (mg quercetin g<sup>−1</sup>), while the antioxidant activity (EC<sub>50</sub>) of the 50% ethanol extracts ranged between 28.0 and 123.2 (µg mL<sup>−1</sup>) in 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging assay. Among the identified compounds, chlorogenic acid and 1,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid were the main constituents in <i>C. indicum</i> leaves. The antioxidant activity demonstrated a positive correlation with 1,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.62) and 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.77). The content of chlorogenic acid and dicaffeoylquinic acid isomers varied significantly according to the effects of exchangeable magnesium, cation exchange capacity, annual temperature, and precipitation, based on analysis of variance. The habitat suitability map using the geographical information system and the MaxEnt model predicted very high and high regions, comprising 3.2% and 10.1% of the total area, respectively. These findings could be used in future cultivation to produce high-quality leaves of <i>C. indicum</i>.
