Crambe: Seed Yield and Quality in Response to Nitrogen and Sulfur—A Case Study in Northeastern Poland
2020
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of nitrogen (0, 30, 60, 90, 120 kg ha⁻¹) and sulfur (0, 15, and 30 kg ha⁻¹) fertilization on the morphometric parameters of plants, seed yield components, seed and straw yield, N fertilizer use efficiency (NFUE), and quality of crambe seeds. The experiment had a randomized complete block design, and it was carried out in Bałcyny (northeastern Poland) in 2017–2019. In northeastern Poland, the average seed yields ranged from 0.96 to 1.64–1.82 Mg ha⁻¹ (hulled seeds). Seed yield increased significantly in response to 120 kg N ha⁻¹ and 15 kg S ha⁻¹. The NFUE of crambe decreased by 28% with a rise in N rate. Hulled crambe seeds accumulated 324–394 g kg⁻¹ DM of crude fat, 208–238 g kg⁻¹ DM of total protein, and 118–137 g kg⁻¹ DM of crude fiber. Nitrogen fertilization decreased the crude fat content (by 6%), and it increased the total protein content (by 11%) and the crude fiber content (by 14%) of crambe seeds. Sulfur fertilization increased crude fat content (by 4–5%) without inducing significant differences in the total protein content and the crude fat content of seeds.
