Water Management
While camelina is drought-tolerant, it benefits from light irrigation at key stages, such as post-sowing, rosette stage, and flowering, to optimize yield.
- Drought Tolerance: Camelina can thrive with little water, but strategic irrigation boosts yields.
- Irrigation Timing:
- Post-Sowing: Apply 10-20 mm to aid germination.
- Rosette Stage: 20-25 mm to support early vegetative growth.
- Flowering: 25-35 mm to maximize seed development.
