Variety traits
Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz
Camelina sativa is a crop highly resistant to lodging due to its sturdy stem with well-developed vascular bundles. This trait allows the crop to withstand prolonged standing in the field and facilitates mechanical harvesting.
In the reference 3 varieties crop Camelina, where this is mentioned in the description.
Lodging resistance in Camelina sativa is rated on a 5-point scale, where 5 points correspond to completely upright crops and 1 point to a condition that precludes normal machinery operation. In variety trials, this trait is considered part of the assessment of a variety's overall adaptability to mechanized cultivation.
The high stem strength of the plant is achieved through its ability to lignify rapidly. Due to its resistance to lodging and seed shattering, agronomists have the flexibility to choose harvest timing. The risk of lodging in camelina under standard agrotechnical conditions is minimal, making it less demanding regarding the monitoring of this parameter compared to a number of other cruciferous crops.
