Winter Camelina is a resilient annual brassica and industrial oilseed crop known for its exceptional winter hardiness. As a cover crop, it effectively aids in erosion control, alleviates soil compaction, and scavenges nutrients during the fall and early spring months. With a low carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, plants rapidly decompose in the spring, minimizing the risk of nutrient tie-up. Camelina should be planted between October and November in the Midwest; it may bolt and die if seeded too early in the fall. This versatile crop thrives in a variety of soil and environmental conditions, making it ideal as a potential relay crop. Winter Camelina can be seeded alongside Cereal Rye. With a small and dense seed size of approximately 345,000 to 465,000 seeds per pound, Camelina allows for efficient seeding and establishment.
