Camelina (Camelina sativa) is a cruciferous plant (Brassicaceae) native to Europe and Southwest Asia. It has historically been cultivated in Europe, notably in France, where the first traces date back to the Bronze Age, for the production of vegetable oil and fodder.
Camelina (Camelina sativa) is a cruciferous plant (Brassicaceae) native to Europe and Southwest Asia. It has historically been cultivated in Europe, notably in France, where the first traces date back to the Bronze Age, for the production of vegetable oil and fodder.
It was widely cultivated until the early 20th century, producing an oil used in soaps and paints, before gradually disappearing in the face of competition from more productive oilseed crops such as rapeseed. At the time, the solid residues obtained after oil extraction were used as a feed supplement for livestock or as fertilizer; the stalks were used to make brooms.
Today, it is making a comeback on the European agricultural scene, and is attracting interest from a wide range of players, both farmers and manufacturers, thanks to its agronomic advantages and the new outlets it opens up.
Good adaptation to soil and climate conditions
Camelina has one major advantage: it adapts to a wide range of soil and climate conditions, and is particularly well suited to low-potential soils. It is often presented as a hardy crop, thanks to its low input requirements and resistance to drought and high temperatures. It is also fairly tolerant of pests and resistant to lodging. Camelina requires little fertilizer or pesticide, so its introduction into cropping systems has both economic and environmental benefits.
No special equipment required, but some adjustments are necessary
What's more, it doesn't require any special equipment, making it easy to introduce to farms. Nevertheless, due to its small seed size (PMG ≈ 1-1.5g), the planting and harvesting phases require adjustments and special attention.
A short-cycle crop
An interesting feature of camelina is the length of its cycle, which varies according to variety and sowing period, from 90 to 250 days (1700 to 1900 degrees day at base 0°C, depending on variety). Camelina can therefore be grown as a main crop, in association with lentils, for example, or as a catch crop for short-cycle varieties (link to page on how to insert camelina into the SoC).
An asset for organic farming
Its low input requirements, combined with its strong competitive power - provided it emerges regularly and evenly - mean that it has a place in organic farming rotations (link to organic farming page). Some farmers even report that it has an "allelopathic" effect, i.e. that it can naturally inhibit the growth of other undesirable plants around it. To our knowledge, this has not yet been demonstrated in the field.
Conclusion
All these advantages make it a crop that can be easily integrated into a variety of cropping systems in France and around the world, in both organic and conventional farming, as a main crop or as a catch crop.

The challenges
Cap Protéines+ is part of the National Strategy for the Development of Plant Proteins (SNPV). This large-scale project follows on from Cap Protéines, which produced numerous results (tools for producers and breeders, initiatives to structure local supply chains, new technical references, etc.).
Launched in 2024, Cap Protéines+ aims to capitalize on this dynamic partnership between the animal and plant sectors to boost the production and use of plant proteins. The aim is to strengthen France's protein sovereignty by acquiring technical and economic benchmarks, and helping industry players (from farmers to processors) to take full advantage of existing innovations and knowledge.
The objectives
Cap Protéines + aims to meet the following objectives:
- Secure the ability to produce grain and forage legumes, in organic and conventional production, by evaluating and transferring robustness levers and researching new solutions;
- Promote the use of French plant proteins by animal and human food processors;
- Structure and strengthen the plant protein production and processing sectors in France (including overseas territories) to make them sustainable;
- Support industry players on a massive scale by proposing collaborative approaches to acquiring references and implementing strategies to increase sovereignty on a regional scale;
- Promote the transfer of results that can already be deployed to farmers and trainees.
Expected results
- Identify limiting factors and propose optimized technical itineraries to secure the production of grain and forage legumes, adapted to the context of climate and regulatory change.
- Develop technical, economic and environmental benchmarks for French plant proteins.
- Develop innovations in processing techniques to support the "vegetalization" of the food supply.
