Lodging of white mustard

Sinapis alba L.

Lodging in white mustard is evaluated on a 5-point scale or as a percentage of the plot area and is a key factor determining seed losses during mechanized harvesting.

In the reference 92 varieties crop White mustard, where this is mentioned in the description.

Resistance to lodging in white mustard is determined by varietal characteristics, where a score of 5.0 indicates a high degree of resistance that allows the stems to maintain an upright position. A decrease in this rating or an increase in the percentage of lodged plants, which can reach 43–72% under unfavorable conditions, leads to critical seed yield losses that can account for up to 76% of biological productivity.

This trait is closely linked to harvest efficiency, as lodged crops significantly complicate combine operation. Unlike many other crops, the effect of mineral nutrition, particularly excess nitrogen fertilizer, on white mustard is ambiguous: lodging may not occur even with high nitrogen application rates. Stability also depends on agronomic practices, including the use of mixed cropping, where the seeding rates of components determine the risk of reduced vertical stability of the stand.
