Abstract

Introduction
The production of oilseeds plays a significant role in saving currency, accelerating the process of economic development, security and food independence of the country. Camellia (Camelina sativa L. Crantz) from Brassicaceae family, is able to grow in different weather and soil conditions and requires less water, fertilizer and pesticides than other oilseeds. Therefore, the current research was conducted with the aim of introducing this plant and evaluating its yield potential and cultivation compatibility in Mazandaran.
Materials and Methods
This experiment was carried out as factorial based on randomized complete block design in four replications at Bayekola Agricultural Research Station (Mazandaran Agricultural and Natural Resources Research and Training Center). Six sowing dates (November 5, November 21, December 5, December 21, January 4 and January 19) and five planting distances (15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 cm) were selected as the study factors.
Results and Discussion
The results of analysis of variance showed that the treatments of planting distance and planting date had a significant effect on different traits of camellia plant. Plant height, number of sub-branches and biological yield were influenced by the interaction effect of the studied factors. The highest plant height values were observed on the planting date of November 15 and at 20 and 30 cm intervals (125.5 and 124.75 cm, respectively). Also, the characteristics of seed yield, days to flowering, days to maturity, the number of seeds in a pod and 1000 grain weight were affected by sowing date factor, and the traits of days to flowering, days to maturity and 1000 grain weight were affected by planting distance factor.
Conclusion
In the field of seed production and obtaining more seed yield, although the planting dates of November 5 to December 5 did not have significant differences with each other; but the planting date of November 21 is the best possible planting date due to the highest seed yield and the higher number of seeds in the pod. Also, the treatment combination of planting distance of 25 cm and planting date of December 5 with high biological yield can be a suitable treatment combination.
