Abstract
The research was aimed at assessing oil quality obtained from Crambe abyssinica Hochst. cultivated in the Crimea. In our studies, we used variety ‘Polet’. It has been included in the State Register of Breeding Achievements since 2012 and is recommended for all areas of this crop production. The content of crude protein in the seeds of Crambe abyssinica was 28.0%; fiber – 18.7%, ash – 6.0%, nitrogen-free extractive substances – 3.5%. In 2016, the fat content in seeds (earlier planting dates such as the second decade of March) amounted to 33.63%; the third decade of March – 33.83%; the first decade of April – 29.73%. The content of erucic acid, depending on the planting date, in the Crambe abyssinica Hochst. oil varied from 56.47 to 60.05%; linoleic – from 7.90 to 8.12%; linolenic – from 4.67 to 5.33; oleic – from 15.75 to 17.32; eicosene – from 3.02 to 4.85%; behenic – from 2.03 to 2.15%.
