Spring false flax (Camelina sativa L.), oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), spring rape
(Brassica napus oleifera annua Metzd.), white mustard (Sinapis alba L.), and blue mustard
(Brassica juncea Czern) were studied in order to establish their yield, oil content and quality. It
was found that the highest seed yield (2.82 t ha-1
) was formed by spring rape. Yields were also
high in spring false flax (2.68 t ha-1
) and oil flax (2.34 t ha-1
). It was found that the highest oil
content was in oil flax (52.2%), blue mustard (45.8%) and false flax (45.0%). The highest oil
yields were provided by spring rape, false flax and oil flax - 1.21–1.25 t ha-1
. It was found that
the most physiologically valuable are oil flax and false flax, which have a high content of
omega-3(ω-3) fatty acids. It is advisable to use it for therapeutic, prophylactic and dietary
purposes. The cultivation of false flax and oil flax is economically feasible and provides an
environmental effect due to the reduction of pesticides.
