Variety traits

Oil content — white mustard

Sinapis alba L.

The oil content of white mustard seeds characterizes the amount of crude fats they contain and ranges from 25% to 40%, depending on the variety, meteorological conditions of the growing season, and agricultural practices.

In the reference 18 varieties crop White mustard, where this is mentioned in the description.

Typical oil content values for this crop range from 25–35%, with figures approaching 35–39% considered high. Compared to Sarepta mustard, white mustard has a lower fat content but is distinguished by a specific composition, including a low volatile oil content of about 0.2%.

Fat accumulation in seeds depends on the climatic zone of cultivation, while the influence of agricultural practices, such as seeding rates or fertilization, remains ambiguous. The level of oil content is an important economic indicator that may decrease during prolonged seed storage due to intensive respiration, especially if the seeds have not undergone the post-harvest ripening stage.
