“…Seed yield was significantly higher with higher doses of nitrogen and the resulting difference as compared to the lower dose was 0.11 t•ha , which guarantees a high yield of seeds. The effect of higher doses of nitrogen on the growth of the yield was confirmed in previous studies by other authors (Jiang et al, 2013;Jiang et al, 2014;Sintim et al, 2015). For the optimal dose of nitrogen for false flax Jiang et al (2013) the camelina requires about 12 kg of kg•ha -1 per 100 kg of expected seed yield.…”

“…Many authors (Jiang et al, 2013;Jiang et al, 2014;Sintim et al, 2015) confirmed that higher doses of nitrogen increase the protein content and lower fat content in the seeds of false flax.

Zubr (2003b) as well as Zubr and Matthäus (2002) conclude that the differences in the quality of false flax seeds are mainly due to the varietal characteristics and conditions of climate and soil in which the plants were grown.…”

False flax (Camelina sativa L.), is an oil plant, of the Brassicaceae (Cruciferae) family. It is a rediscovered crop with multiple uses, it is a frost proof, low-soil and climatic conditions plant. In Poland the variety is not very widespread, despite of its health benefits. The particular value of camelina oil is given by its content in polyunsaturated fatty acid (50-60%), by its content in omega 3 (35-40%) and by its content in omega 6 (15-20%). The seeds are used for the extraction of oil (used in medicine or as bio fuel) or directly as animal feed. The research was carried out in the years 2012-2014 at the Experimental Station of Cultivar Assessment in Przecław, Poland. The summer Camelina sativa cv. ‘Omega’was used for the experiment. The studied factors were: A-plant density (200, 300, 400 pcs. m-2) and B-nitrogen fertilization (50, 100 kg∙ha-1). With the increase of the sowing density significantly increased plant density after emergence and before harvest, but reduced the number of silicles per plant. Increase in the rates of sowing from 200 to 400 pcs. m-2 decreased the 1000 seeds weight. Sowing 200 seeds m-2 compared to higher norms had significant effect on reduction the number of seeds in silicle, seed yield and the content of the seeds Fe, but resulted in an increase in the content of the seeds Mn and Zn. On the other hand, sowing 400 seeds m-2 caused a reduction the protein in the seeds, K, and Mg, and an increase fat yield and crude fat content in seeds. The higher nitrogen dose significantly increased the number of silicles per plant, total protein content, Fe, Zn in the seeds, seed yield, yield total protein and the percentage of linoleic and linolenic acids, while reduced the number of seeds per silicle, the crude fat content in seeds and the percentage of oleic acid.

“…For example, the maximum seed yield of camelina was attained with the application of 185-300 kg ha −1 N in Chile (Solis et al 2013). The optimum N rate for the highest yield ranged from 120 to 160 kg ha −1 N in eastern Canada (Jiang et al 2013). The maximum seed yield was achieved at a rate of 170 kg ha −1 N on the Canadian prairies (Malhi et al 2014).…”

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.

Winter camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz] is a potential third crop to diversify maize (Zea mays L.)–soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] rotations in the upper Midwest. Although generally considered a low‐input crop, empirical evidence suggests that it responds to added nitrogen (N) fertilization. However, optimum agronomic N rates have not been extensively studied in the region. A study was conducted from fall 2018 to fall 2020 at three locations to assess the effects of N fertilizer application time (all N‐rate applied in spring and N‐rate split applied in fall and spring) and rates on biomass and seed yield, and quality of winter camelina. Nitrogen application time did not affect yields. Both biomass and seed yields were greatly affected by N rates at all locations. Nitrogen had minimal effects on the oil and protein content of seeds, although greater N rates were associated with a slight decrease in oil content and a slight increase in protein content. The number of branches and silicles per plant varied significantly with N rates in all locations. The seed‐to‐silicle ratio showed significant differences in two out of three locations. Residual soil N increased with increasing N rates. A fertilization rate of 67 kg ha−1 provided the highest camelina seed yield. While this study has determined the agronomic maximum rate for applied N, further economic analysis could provide comprehensive decision‐making for farmers.
