Variety traits

Rapeseed productivity

Brassica napus var. napus

Rapeseed productivity is assessed as seed yield of oilseeds at a standard moisture content of 14% and as green biomass yield. It is determined by crop structure elements such as plant density, number of pods, 1000-seed weight, and oil content.

In the reference 121 varieties crop Rapeseed, where this is mentioned in the description.

Seed productivity of spring rapeseed averages 8–20 dt/ha, while intensive varieties and hybrids are capable of reaching 30–40 dt/ha. Winter rapeseed has a higher potential, providing yields at the level of 10–30 dt/ha for varieties and 40–50 dt/ha for hybrids, while green biomass yield can reach 300 dt/ha.

Key factors in yield formation are the adaptability of the variety to moisture availability and soil fertility, as well as adherence to technological practices. Highly productive rapeseed actively contributes to the phytosanitary improvement of the soil, which increases the yields of subsequent crops in the crop rotation.
