Development of the culture of rapeseed Brassica napus L. in Argentina
The culture of rapeseed is known in Argentina from year 1940. In year 1974 began the first works of investigation. In year 1990 is reached the greater surface of production. The seeded surface decayed because of the existence of problems in the commercialization and industrialization. In the last three years the seeded surface is over the 10,000 hectares. At this moment the main producing zone is located in the center and the south of the Province of Buenos Aires and are being developed new areas with promissory results. Actually, the Instituto Nacional de Tecnologia agropecuaria (INTA) is developing projects referred to the improvement and the crop management The incorporation of rapeseed in the Argentine schemes of production displays numerous advantages for the producer as for the oil industry. Fundamentally, because is a winter oleaginous culture and the base of the oil production in the country is given for summer crops. This contributes to the diversification and allows the farmers to accede the market at another time of the year being diversified the production and dispersing economics risks.The yields reached are similar to the obtained by the main producing countries and the quality of the oil is according to which is required for the world-wide markets. There are technological constrains, and a lot of works are making with the purpose of making the necessary adjustments to allow a maintained growth of the seeded surface and the production. It is necessary in addition, to transfer all the information with which one counts making activities of diffusion and training to complement and to accompany the commercial proposal. The culture will grow in surface due to the necessity of the farmers to diversify their production and to improve their profit. Considering that Argentina is one of the main exporting vegetal oil countries and rapeseed is the second oleaginous culture in importance, it will be excellent that the country begins to participate in this market.
