“…Fröhlich and Rice (2005) demonstrated that fuel properties of camelina seed oil methyl esters are comparable with those of canola oil (Brassica napus L.). Additionally, because of camelina's high levels of unsaturated fatty acids (FAs) and tocopherol, it can also serve as a healthy cooking oil (Ní Eidhin et al, 2003) and feedstock for a myriad of bioproducts (Berti et al, 2016).

Winter Camelina: Crop Growth, Seed Yield, and Quality Response to Cultivar and Seeding Rate

et al. 2018

Winter annual camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz] is a freeze‐hardy, early‐maturing crop that allows potential for dual cropping in short‐season temperate environments. However, few studies have compared winter cultivars for variation in key agronomic traits, or have addressed optimizing seeding rate for their production. Traits such as freeze hardiness and improved seed yield and quality would benefit large‐scale adoption of winter camelina. The objective of this study was to compare the effects of four winter camelina cultivars (‘Joelle’, ‘Bison’, ‘HPX‐WG1‐35’, and ‘HPX‐WG4‐1’) grown at three seeding rates (334, 668, and 1000 seed m−2) on winter survival and growth, seed yield, seed oil and protein content, and fatty acid composition in west‐central Minnesota. Joelle had the greatest winter survival rate, averaging 64% across three growing seasons. Plant density increased with seeding rate, but did not significantly affect seed yield. Overall, Bison yielded the greatest (944 kg ha−1) followed by Joelle (865 kg ha−1), whereas HPX‐WG1‐35 (650 kg ha−1) yielded the least. Both HPX‐WG1‐35 and HPX‐WG4‐1 flowered earlier than the other two cultivars and had greater seed protein content. Joelle seed had the greatest oil content, averaging 407 g kg−1, and had significantly greater oleic (C18:1) and lower linoleic acid (C18:2) contents than the other cultivars. Cultivars did not differ in erucic acid (C22:1) content, which averaged 2.2% across cultivars. Seeding at 334 seeds m−2 was sufficient to achieve maximum seed and oil yield. Variation in some key traits was identified among cultivars that may benefit breeding programs by improving winter camelina productivity and increasing its use in dual‐cropping systems.

“…Camelina ( Camelina sativa [L.] Crantz) is a reemerging oilseed crop of the Brassicaceae family and possesses the unique attribute of multiple uses. Among the many uses of camelina, the most frequent focus is on its value as a high potential biofuel feedstock mainly biodiesel and jet fuel (Ciubota‐Rosie, Ruiz, Ramos, & Pérez, ; Keske, Hoag, Brandess, & Johnson, ; Liu, Savas, & Avedisian, ; Paulsen, Wichmann, Schuemann, & Richter, ), and other uses entail several industrial products such as adhesives, resins, hydrophilic monomers, gums, and coatings (Berti, Gesch, Eynck, Anderson, & Cermak, ; Li & Sun, ; Sainger et al, ), a high protein animal feed for different classes of livestock (Adhikari, Heo, & Nyachoti, ; Bullerwell, Collins, Lall, & Anderson, ; Jaśkiewicz, Sagan, & Puzio, ; Pikul et al, ), food and supplements (Berti et al, ) are among the major focus of its cultivation globally. Along with the aforementioned uses, the inherent trait of high oil content (28%–48% on a DM basis) of camelina seed (Bacenetti, Restuccia, Schillaci, & Failla, ; Yang, Caldwell, Corscadden, He, & Li, ) relative to the 26.6%–40.2% oil content of canola (Malhi, Gan, & Raney, ) increases its potential as a non‐conflicting biofuel crop, that is, it has been classified as a minor edible oilseed crop for human food supply compared to canola (Drenth, Olsen, Cabot, & Johnson, ; Koçar, ).…”

Nitrogen source and rate effects on grain and potential biodiesel production of camelina in the semiarid environment of northern Nevada

et al. 2018

The objective of this two-year study (2016-2017 spring) carried out at the University of Nevada, Reno Main Station Field Laboratory, Reno, NV, was to evaluate the effects of nitrogen source, rate, and camelina cultivar on grain yield and potential biodiesel production irrigated with reclaimed water. Treatments were two sources of urea fertilizer [conventional urea (CU) and polymer-coated urea (PCU)], four N rates (0, 40, 80, and 120 kg N ha -1 ), and two cultivars of camelina ("Blaine Creek" and "Pronghorn") arranged in a 4 × 2 × 2 factorial combinations with four replications each in a RCBD experiment. Plot size was 7.6 m long × 1.8 m wide, and camelina was seeded at a rate of 5 kg PLS seed ha -1 .The quantity of light intercepted increased linearly from 44.9% to 65.9% as N application rate increased from 0 to 120 kg N ha -1 , and it was greater for CU (59.6%) compared to PCU (54.0%) fertilized plots. There was a linear increased in grain yield ranging from 534 to 1,010 kg/ha as N application rate increased from 0 to 120 kg N ha -1 . In Year 2, grain yield of Blaine Creek (898 kg/ha) was greater than that of Pronghorn (464 kg/ha). Also, there was a linear increase in estimated biodiesel from 51.2 to 94.2 L/ha as N application rate increased. For both grain and biodiesel production, there was no advantage of using controlledrelease PCU fertilizer and 80 to 120 kg N ha -1 is sufficient for the cultivation of camelina in this environment. Based on the range of grain yield obtained in this study, camelina can be a potential alternative crop to integrate into the annual crop production cycle in water-limited environments like Nevada.

“…The oilseed, camelina (Camelina sativa) belonging to the Brassicaceae family, has been developed as a crop for biofuel, human consumption and animal feedstuffs (Berti, Gesch, Eynck, Anderson, & Cermake, 2016). It shows great potential as a promising sustainable alternative energy crop for its favourable agronomic characteristics such as high seed oil content and high yield of oil per hectare (Moser, 2010).…”

High‐oil residue camelina meal, a viable source of protein at low levels in diets for juvenile salmonids

et al. 2019

The oilseed Camelina sativa has been studied as a lipid source for farmed salmonids, but recommended inclusion as a protein source has not been determined. This study evaluated low inclusion of camelina high‐oil residue meal (HORM) at 20, 40 and 60 g/kg of the diet, to determine an adequate level for Atlantic salmon parr (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Salmon and trout were fed experimental diets containing up to 60 g/kg HORM for 16 weeks. At 40 g/kg HORM, trout and salmon growth performance were similar to those fed a control diet. However, at 60 g/kg HORM, trout showed lower final weight, weight gain and feed intake than those fed the control diet. Rainbow trout fed 40 and 60 g/kg HORM showed significantly lower whole body ash (p = .005), slightly lower whole body protein levels and higher fat than the control. In salmon fed 60 g/kg HORM diets, whole body ash (p = .024), and the submucosal layer of the intestine was thicker than the control (p = .007). Current results indicate that up to 40 g/kg HORM can be included in diets for rainbow trout and salmon juveniles.
