“…For example, seed yield of camelina with 120 kg ha −1 N was higher than with 0 and 60 kg ha −1 N rates (Agegnehu and Honermeier 1997), but 120 kg ha −1 N was the highest N rate that was tested and higher N rates may have produced even higher seed yield. A positive linear relationship between seed yield and applied N rate up to 100 kg ha −1 was found by Wysocki et al (2013). The optimum N rate for the highest seed yield in another study was reported to be 60 kg ha −1 N, but the corresponding seed yield was only 830 kg ha −1 (Koncius and Karcauskiene 2010).…”

Camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz] has potential in aquaculture, livestock feed production, and the biofuel industry. It is necessary to determine the appropriate production technology for the newly introduced crop under different environmental conditions. The objective of this 2-year study was to measure the response of five camelina genotypes in terms of seed yield, yield components, and disease incidence to applied nitrogen (N) at multiple sites in the Maritime provinces of eastern Canada. The factorial experiment was set up as a randomized complete block design. The two factors were six N rates (0, 25, 50, 100, 150, and 200 kg ha −1 N) and five genotypes of camelina (Calena, CDI002, CDI005, CDI007, and CDI008). The interactive effect of N rates and genotypes was considered. Results showed that camelina, which is usually considered a low-input crop, responded positively to increased applied N at rates up to 200 kg ha −1 N. Seed yield responded differently to applied N rates depending on genotype. Branch and pod development were decisive for seed yield. The advanced line CDI007 had the highest yield potential among the five genotypes. Downy mildew infection was positively correlated with applied N rates; however, seed yield was not significantly affected by downy mildew infection.Key words: camelina, genotype, nitrogen, yield, yield components, downy mildew.Résumé : La caméline [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz] présente de l'intérêt pour l'aquaculture, la fabrication d'aliments du bétail et l'industrie des biocarburants. Toutefois, il faut identifier la technologie qui permettra de produire cette nouvelle culture dans diverses conditions. Cette étude de deux ans devait préciser la réaction de cinq génotypes de caméline à l'application d'engrais azoté (N) sur les plans du rendement grainier, des composantes du rendement et de l'incidence des maladies, à de nombreux endroits dans les provinces des Maritimes, dans l'est du Canada. L'expérience factorielle était structurée en blocs aléatoires complets. Les deux facteurs examinés consistaient en six taux d'application des engrais N (0, 25, 50, 100, 150 et 200 kg de N par hectare) et cinq génotypes de caméline (Calena, CDI002, CDI005, CDI007 et CDI008). Les chercheurs ont examiné l'interaction de ces facteurs. Les résultats indiquent que la caméline, souvent considérée comme une culture peu exigeante, réagit bien à l'application d'une plus grande quantité d'engrais N, jusqu'au taux de 200 kg par hectare. Le rendement grainier réagit de façon variable au taux d'application de l'engrais, selon le génotype. Le développement des ramifications et des gousses joue un rôle déter-minant dans le rendement grainier. La lignée évoluée CDI007 se caractérise par le rendement potentiel le plus élevé des cinq génotypes. L'infection par le mildiou présente une corrélation positive avec la quantité d'engrais N appliquée. Cependant, cette maladie n'a aucun impact significatif sur le rendement grainier.

“…Little information exists about soils where camelina is grown; therefore, it was not possible to evaluate territory suitability for its production, and a large portion of the national soils were classified as without information (Table 4). Chromic Luvisol and Haplic Kastanozem were considered to be the best soils for camelina development, as the average production in these cases was 2049 kg·ha −1 [34] and 1913 kg·ha −1 [15,17], respectively.…”

“…Examples of camelina presence and production were found in 15 locations, four of which correspond to the same soil type (Typic Haploxerands), and the registered production of each location was averaged [5,[15][16][17]. The Typic Dystrandepts and Humic Haploxerand [5,16] soil types were considered as Humic Andosol for our purposes, and Xeric Haplocambids [15,17] was considered as Cambisol, grouping all similar soil types in Chile.…”

“…The oil content of its seeds decreases as it releases nitrogen into the soil, and it is not replenished after fertilization with phosphorus and sulfur [16]. Camelina has a higher tolerance to drought, frost, and heat, and is less susceptible to pests and disease when compared to canola [15,17]. It is also more adaptable to marginal soils [16] and has lower production costs [4], contributing to environmental sustainability and climate change mitigation [18].…”

Camelina (Camelina sativa L.) is an oilseed with potential for use as a raw material in second-generation biofuels. Camelina has a seed yield of up to 2380 kg·ha −1 and contains around 45% fatty acids. Selection of a suitable site is critical for production optimization. The objective of this study was to determine Chilean agro-climatic suitability for establishing camelina as a productive alternative. Climate and soil requirements and geographical restraints were evaluated for the species, considering the climatological characteristics of its regions of origin, as well as regions where camelina is successfully grown in the rest of the world. The variables considered included factors (maximum temperatures of the warmest month, water deficits, and degree days) and limitations (altitude, geomorphology, and current land use), which permitted the evaluation of the national territory for a certain level of suitability. It was determined that 1.3% of the national territory (960,664 ha) has some degree of suitability for camelina adoption. Between the Biobío and Los Lagos regions, 49.0% of the land (471,203 ha) is in the category of no thermic restrictions, with mild water restrictions, and mild soil restrictions or without information, which can be used for camelina production. The Los Ríos region has 21.4% surface area (321,176 ha) with some level of suitability for camelina, the most suitable region to establish this crop in Chile. This research has provided valuable information applicable to new species and geographic areas which facilitate the adaptation of agricultural and forestry production to global changes.

“…Рыжик является нетрадиционной, перспективной и малотребовательной к агроэкологическим условиям культурой, которую можно возделывать как в южных, так и в северных регионах, в том числе и в зонах рискованного земледелия [6]. Потенциальная урожайность яро-вого рыжика достигает 1,6-2,0 т/га, семена содержат до 40-42% масла, которое используется, как для пище-вых, так и для технических целей [1,9,10]. Исследования ученых показали, что посевы ярового рыжика, при соблюдении технологии выращивания, отличаются отсутствием сорняков и не нуждаются в обработке герби-цидами.…”
