In the last few years, there has been a real boom in the consumption of flax seeds (crown/oil), driven by increased demand from the food, fodder, and, above all, chemical industries.
Russia ranks second in flax seeds exports with a share of about 26 % of the world exports, coming second only to Canada (32 %) and ahead of Kazakhstan (19 %). This indicator tells us about the growing popularity of this crop among agricultural producers. Today, we will talk about the peculiarities of seed selection and cultivation technologies of this interesting and dynamically developing crop.
Dear friends, colleagues!
I congratulate all of us on the Day of agricultural and processing industry worker!
