Oil-rich grains: Educational Garden Agricultural Sciences

Oil rich grains - Winter and summer types

Rapeseed, sunflower, flax, camelina and safflower are available for the production of vegetable oils. Rapeseed plays a major role as a domestic oil plant. The press residues from oil production are used as animal feed. The oils are used in the food industry as well as in industrial processing for the production of e.g. paints or environmentally friendly fuels and lubricants. Oil plants are also an aesthetic enrichment for our cultural landscape due to the diversity of flowers.
