Spring false flax (Camelina sativa L.), oil flax (Linum usitatissimum L.), spring rape(Brassica napus oleifera annua Metzd.), white mustard (Sinapis alba L.), and blue mustard(Brassica juncea Czern) were studied in order to establish their yield, oil content and quality. Itwas found that the highest seed yield (2.82 t ha-1) was formed by spring rape. Yields were alsohigh in spring false flax (2.68 t ha-1) and oil flax (2.34 t ha-1). It was found that the highest oilcontent was in oil flax (52.2%), blue mustard (45.8%) and false flax (45.0%). The highest oilyields were provided by spring rape, false flax and oil flax - 1.21–1.25 t ha-1. It was found thatthe most physiologically valuable are oil flax and false flax, which have a high content ofomega-3(ω-3) fatty acids. It is advisable to use it for therapeutic, prophylactic and dietarypurposes. The cultivation of false flax and oil flax is economically feasible and provides anenvironmental effect due to the reduction of pesticides.
