The benefits and prevalence of safflower

The native land of safflower is Afghanistan and Ethiopia, and in ancient Egypt the flowers of this plant were used for ritual purposes. Mass sowing of safflower in Russia began around the middle of the 30s of the last century, but soon almost everywhere safflower was replaced by more productive varieties of sunflower. The plant does not belong to oil crops with high popularity, but more and more sown areas in our country are sown with this particular plant.

Under the unstable weather conditions characteristic of recent years, it is the cultivation of safflower and its use as plant food for animals that can significantly reduce the shortage of oilseeds. For the cultivation of crops, the use of aggressive chemicals and fertilizers is not required, which also speaks in its favor when used as feed. In livestock farming it is extremely useful because of the high content in its composition of 33-40% of semi-drying vegetable oil (its content in the kernels can be up to 60% of the total mass). The composition of the oil includes a large number of vegetable fatty acids — linoleic, oleic, palmitic, stearic and linolenic acids, each of which is useful and important in its own way when animals eat.
