Oil content is an important indicator of the quality of oil crops, such as sunflower, rapeseed, flax, etc. It determines the amount, properties and quality of the oil that can be obtained from the seeds.
Also, the oil content in the seeds of various crops depends on the variety, the region of growth and the degree of its maturity.
Different methods are used to determine the oiliness of sunflower or rapeseed. One of them is direct pressing of sunflower, rapeseed and other oil crops for further analysis of acid number or other analyses.
