ABSTRACT



A study was performed on rapeseed cultivars whose oil, depending on the purpose of their production, would be characterized by suitable fatty acid composition. The study, carried out in the years 2001-2003 on Lirajet, Lisek, Rasmus, Kaszub and Contakt rapeseed cultivars, showed that the fatty acid composition and its profile can be controlled through adjusting the harvest time.

Key words: rapeseed, cultivar, harvest time, fatty acids.
